Fairchild Estate
G III Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
What a great wine - bold and robust and sings out loud - fantastic notes are playing on nose - with plenty of blue and black berries
The color is deep deep inky purple - RP gave it a 97 but I think it will get better over the next 20 years - it will evolve - I know Melka is the winemaker but this tastes like the schrader RBS I love so much from Brown
This 100% cab and grapes from Beckstoffer and again what is it that is not to love
The first sip was a mind blowing pure taste of rich complex and structured OMG feelings that is hard to find and finish was extraordinary looooong - I exclaimed a famous word "bouyi"
Smiles so big tonight my face is hurting but feeling better with every taste of this baby

Very dark colored. Black cherry and black fruits. Really great mouthfeel. Minerality, solid structure. Powerful big wine. Nice finish.

Nov 14th, 2022What can I say, I love Firchild/Stones wine! Enjoyed this one with great friends and a fantastic steak dinner. Floral and ripe black/red fruit on the nose with a deep dark ruby color. Oozes structure, solid all around with ripe fruit, minerality, chocolate, coffee. Nice long finish. Lovely wine!

Very disappointed with this one- medium body, not balanced. Not worth the 200 plus $$
