Product Description
RP96 "Coming from the Tench Vineyard in Oakville, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Stones No. 3 has an opaque garnet-purple color and is profoundly scented of crème de cassis, blackberry compote and dried mulberries with suggestions of dusty earth, dried Provence herbs, lavender and tar plus a waft of black olives. Full-bodied and firmly constructed with grainy tannins and lively acid defining the generous black fruit, it finishes long and savory. 220 cases were made." LPB for WA Dec 2017
AG95 "Fairchild's 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Stones No. 3 emerges from the Tench vineyard, which is the heart of the valley floor in Eastern Oakville. Dark, sumptuous and explosive, with all of the resonance that is typical of the wines from this district in Oakville, the Tench has much to offer. This heady, full-throttle Cabernet is another winner from Larry Fairchild and Philippe Melka." AG for VM Jan 2018
Robert Parker writes, "This is another small boutique winery dedicated to high-quality Napa vineyards. Most of the cuvées that are reviewed in the following notes are produced in 200- to 300-case quantities." Published: Oct 28, 2016
