16. Art, Design, Wine and Luxury - How Lawrence Fairchild is Using His Creative Genius to Fashion the Ultimate Napa Valley Wine Experience
on this episode, I sit down and talk with Lawrence Fairchild. Lawrence is a prominent figure in the winemaking industry and is known for his top-class cabernets from both the Stones wine and Fairchild wine labels. Lawrence’s passion for winemaking is characterized by his desire for perfection above everything else. He says he wants you to feel like you’ve received a gift from Cartier every time you receive one of his incredible bottles. Lawrence never had any intention of being in the wine business. From a boy raised on a farm in Nebraska, Lawrence’s trajectory came to this apex more by fate and a passion for perfection in life rather than raw ambition. That leads us exactly to our discussion today! Please enjoy this episode where Lawrence and I discuss his incredible journey from a farm in Nebraska, to Capitol Hill and finally to his incredible career in world of wine to include his amazing Perrarus II release.

Customer Reviews
Sarah the storyteller
I don’t think I’ve listened to another podcast where the host is so good at pulling amazing stories out of her guests. She makes the world of wine fun to learn about. (Also Sarah was in MASTERCHEF!)
Great teaching
This podcast is very informative. I have really enjoyed listening to the journeys of the people Sarah interviews. I am excited to continue the journey that she started as the podcasts get released.
Delighted from Episode 1!!!
I learned more while listening to this informative interview than I have before in any travel show, etc. Delighted because Episode 1 really reminds us of the heart of the Sommelier community and that it’s made up of real people. Left me wanting to explore wine (especially a certain type ;) in a whole new way. Love the story/history aspect of this. Doesn’t feel like learning when it is so enjoyable and spoken about from the host and guest in an obvious Love language for the topic. Can’t wait for more!
