An historic Napa Valley Victorian gets a new life, welcoming guests to experience Fausts modern approach to classic Cabernet Sauvignon
St. Helena, CA (August 14, 2020) After three years of restoration,Faustis thrilled to welcome guests and visitors to its daring and bold winery and tasting room, the Faust Haus. Opening its doors to the public on September 4, 2020, the Faust Haus (2867 St. Helena Highway) will feature experiences where guests can enjoy Fausts modern portrait of classic Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon in an equally fitting setting. With its distinct design and unexpected features, the Faust Haus breathes new energy into the traditional Napa Valley luxury wine scene.
Faust produces carefully crafted Cabernet Sauvignon sourced from its organically-farmed estate vineyard in Coombsville. From meticulously detailed harvesting to innovative methods of fermentation, the winemaking process is overseen by winemaker David Jelinek and estate director Jen Beloz.
We didnt want this to be like any other Napa Valley tasting room, says estate director, Jen Beloz. We wanted to push the boundaries of what was possible. The Faust folklore is all about the passion for the craft and were thrilled to have a home to share that story with guests, also diving deep into what makes our Coombsville estate such an amazing place to grow Cabernet Sauvignon.
Located in St. Helena just off Highway 29, the former farmhouse and prohibition-era cellar provides a creative escape from the typical trappings of Napa Valley. Each room within the historic Victorian home was intentionally designed to offer guests a unique experience, created to feel more like a luxurious living room than a traditional tasting room. Faust enlisted the architectural design firm Aidlin Darling Design to reimagine and restore the home, which was originally built in 1878.
We connected with this notion of moving up from darkness to light as one ascends through the housefrom a place of rich opulence to one of bright simplicity, as analogous to pursuing a state of enlightenment, says David Darling, Principal of Aidlin Darling Design. We hoped to build a new kind of wine tasting experience while honoring and amplifying the historic beauty of the home.
Ona LeSassier of Maca Huneeus Design created the interiors, selecting brightly colored, unique pieces and vintage findssuch as a Jean Lurcat mid-century tapestry and custom photography from conceptual, fine art photographer, Lindsey Rossto fully envelop guests in the Faust experience. A freehand wall mural by Italian artist Roberto Ruspoli lines the stairway up to the bright, white second floor, evoking the story and myth of Faust.
San Francisco-based landscape architecture and design firm, Surfacedesign, was brought in to envision the property grounds by designing distinct, memorable garden rooms linked together by shifting color gradients. Faust expanded Surfacedesigns palette by integrating literary allusions and color theory into the projects narrative, says lead landscape designer Roderick Wyllie, ASLA. We poured our souls into this project.
Faust will be taking all appropriate measures to ensure that staff and guests are safe and adhere to the latest guidelines from the state and county. For the foreseeable future, the Faust Haus will be hosting guests outdoors on the restored Victorian veranda and stunning outdoor gardens, overlooking sweeping views of Napa Valley on a reservation basis. Visitors can reserve an experience atfaustwines.com. Faust will welcome guests for indoor experiences in the renovated house once it is safe for customers and staff to do so. Tasting experiences include limited production wines from the Faust estate in Coombsville and start at $55 per person. Children and pets are not permitted.
