Description
Entirely Cabernet Sauvignon, your wine is sourced from Lamb Vineyard, a singular estate site that has been farmed and vinified by the Fisher family since 1975. Nestled between the foot of the Palisades and Simmons Creek in the Calistoga nested appellation, Lamb Vineyard is composed of boomer clay loam and gravelly loam soils that yield small quantities of fruit. The resulting wines showcase a rare combination of rich, concentrated flavors, supple texture and elegance. Named after co-founder Juelle Lamb Fisher’s late father, Dr. Robert Lamb, this wine carries added significance and family pride as we celebrate five decades of farming estate vineyards in Napa Valley.

Adam Goodrich
Winemaker, Fisher Vineyards
As Adam recalls, “wine was really the only adult beverage I saw growing up,” which ultimately led to a keen interest while studying at the University of Nevada. After graduating with a degree in BioChemistry, Adam shifted focus to the realm of winemaking, first joining the lab at Franciscan Estate, followed by the Robert Mondavi Winery in Oakville. Having gained a practical view of chemistry in wine, Adam went on to develop a love for the art of winemaking over many years working with Bob Cabral at Williams Selyem.
Adam joined Fisher Vineyards in 2010, bringing with him a deep appreciation for the expression of terroir in classically balanced wines. Now working with estate vineyards and a close-nit team, Adam describes having found true winemaking “in capturing the soil, topography, joy and emotional experience as a snapshot of both the vintage and our lives.”
Outside of the winery, Adam and his wife, Natalie, stay quite busy with two children, Grace and Gabriel. In addition to time with spent with family, Adam enjoys gardening, golf and running – and at the end of most days, can be found with a great glass of wine that speaks to the place it was made.
