Was this a blind tasting with bottles covered until the end or brand power? Obviously not your favorite based on your other ratings.

Mark Turner

Yes completely blind and yes, not my favorite. Others had a bit more depth of flavor in my opinion.

Mark Turner

Don’t get me wrong, it was a very nice wine, I just liked others better. At the price point it was a great wine.

Decanted 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. — 5 years ago

Beckstoffer Georges III Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

10' Fairchild GIII . The 2010 bottle without a doubt has gotten so much better in the last two years!

Full-bodied, somewhat of a bruiser right out of the bottle ( green olives). A hour decanting & the tannins/acidity have softened up. Nose- Expressive flowers, sweet black cherry, spices. Color Deep purple. Palate- Dense , black fruits( Blackberry) spices, creamy oak. A well polished wine.

Fairchild & Schrader are the best stuff coming out of GIII ? IMO I have not had the Sarah Francis G III.

Certain parts of this vineyard are sensational. Drink/ Hold. I'd be curious to see how this develops in the next 2/3 years.

@David L what are your thoughts on Myriads G III? He is coming out with a new bottling next week from there too

David L

@Greg Ballington I would foolish to comment on the 13, 14, 15. Years prior to that the two best G III I've had without question are Fairchild & Schrader.

Ron R

Sounds yummy, @David L. I must take a look at this stuff. Good notes, too 🙂

Philippe Melka and Larry Fairchild are a partnership in Napa Valley like no other, the 2013 Stones 2 lives up to its press, The wine exhibited notes of tar, tobacco, soaring black fruit and amazing balance. The deep baking spices always keeps me wanting to go back to the glass for more. Bravo Team Philippe and Larry for an exceptional effort — 7 years ago

Coolest bottle out there. I’m getting a more floral than fruit bouquet. Pretty mild all around. Some peach, apricot and lemon. Mild acidity. Very smooth. Will try again tomorrow to see how it is second day. Second night: enhanced flavors, more fullness. — 4 years ago

Tasted with Lawrence Fairchild today. Incredible experience. Thank you Mr. Fairchild. Except for this one all other wines were 2016 vintage. This wine definitely showed its blue and black fruit. It was approachable today but will age effortlessly for years to come. — 6 years ago

09' Myriad Georges. Decanted it for several hours. Love the nose on this wine (always). It's even better than it was a little more than a year ago. It had a lot more muscle a year ago. Still a powerhouse wine, with much more elegance to it.You enjoy Rutherford wines? Can't miss bottle.
10 great years in it! I'm a little partial… Love almost everything that comes out of this great Vineyard!

Enjoy wine from this vineyard. May I also suggest Fairchild. Cheers! — 8 years ago

@Rob Sternthal You can still fine these wines at that price point at auction. Acme was selling(pre-release) the 2014's for sub $ 100. I would absolutely reach out to them!

Know Myriad. Mike Smith. Haven't had yet.
