The Winery
Fairchild
Founded by Larry Fairchild, Fairchild Wines mission is to produce limited, high quality premium red wines. Fairchild sources its Cabernet Sauvignon from two highly acclaimed California vineyards: Beckstoffer Georges III and Sigaro. Home to the Fairchild Sigaro Cabernet Saugvinon, the Sigaro vineyard sits on the south-facing slopes of Lake Hennessey producing full-bodied, structured wine. Notable for producing world-class wines, Beckstoffer Georges III vineyard is home to Fairchild G·III Cabernet Sauvignon, well-structured wine with proven aging potential.
Tasting Notes
- WA95
- The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Sigaro comes from a Pritchard Hill Vineyard planted with Cabernet Sauvignon clones 4 and 7. This is a wine of similar power, richness and texture, but displays slightly more minerality, maybe a slighter cooler climate mouthfeel, but that’s splitting hairs. It is a wine of exceptional intensity, low acidity, ripe tannin, and a long finish, with plenty of blackberry, charcoal and white chocolate notes. Drink it over the next 15-20 years.
- V93
- The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon Sigaro is one of the more sumptuous wines in this range. Dark red and purplish fruit make a strong first impression. Even with all of its intensity, the 2014 is silky and polished enough to drink with just a few years of cellaring. Chocolate, torrefaction and dark spice wrap around the super-ripe finish.
