Viticulturist Annie Favia and her husband, winemaker Andy Erickson, are the forces behind Favia. Both Favia and Erickson boast impressive resumes. Favia has worked alongside a number of luminaries including David Abreu and John Kongsgaard, while Erickson has been involved in a number of high-profile projects including Screaming Eagle, Dalla Valle and Ovid. I tasted three wines from Favia. Cerro Sur is a Cabernet Franc/Cabernet Sauvignon blend. The Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced from vineyards in St. Helena and Coombsville, and includes a small percentage of Petit Verdot. La Magdalena is a Cabernet Franc/Cabernet Sauvignon blend from Madrona Ranch, David Abreu's vineyard in St. Helena. All of the wines are made with indigenous yeasts and bottled without fining or filtration. Viticulturist Annie Favia and her husband, winemaker Andy Erickson, are the forces behind Favia.

On the basis of wines like Ovid, Screaming Eagle, Dalla Valle, Arietta, Dancing Hares and his own label with his wife, viticulturalist Annie Favia, it would be hard to find a California winemaker enjoying a higher success rate these days than Andy Erickson. Following the "no brainer" vintage of 2007, it was necessary to wait for phenolic ripeness in 2008, said Erickson. "Following a dry and not particularly warm summer we picked late but without the threat of rain," he told me, adding that 2008 generally produced a fruit-forward style of wine. "Two thousand nine featured a rainy spring, which led to larger berries and a lot of vine vigor," he went on. "The hillsides tended to do well but the valley floor frequently had problems with late harvesting, especially where the fruit was not fully ripe before the big October rain. But the successful wines have lower pHs than the 2008s are are closer to a classical year. They have nice balance, some cool-vintage character, and more structure than the 2008s."
