Top Notes For
Decided to open up my first bottle of the ‘16s. Definitely required at least an hour decant, then it really was enjoyable. Very ripe black and dark red fruit, tannins light and chalky, perhaps a bit off balance at this point, at least early in the bottle. Day two this really resolved nicely. Wonderfully long finish. Bottle time should be kind to this vintage.

Jun 12th, 2022Stunning bold fruit with blue and black fruits yet approachable with amazing structure and silky smooth tannins . Many have opinions about Fairchild, but his best attribute is Melka as he is an amazing winemaker

Jan 29th, 2020Decanted for 1.5 hours. Opened up but still very young. Wonderful structure, bold yet refined. Very strong, but lovely finish. Can’t wait to visit Fairchild in a month.
