Myriad

Myriad Cellars is a Napa Valley micro-négociant specialising in Beckstoffer vineyard Cabernets, founded by winemaker Nile Zacherle after his tenure at David Arthur Vineyards. The estate's focus on Beckstoffer's ultra-premium vineyard contracts — Dr. Crane in St. Helena, Bourn in Rutherford, and Georges III in Rutherford — places it in direct competition with other prestige producers holding the same fruit contracts, including Dana Estates and Realm. The Beckstoffer Dr. Crane Elysian Reserve is the estate's signature wine and its most-traded at auction, averaging $271 across 217 lots — the single wine that drives the domaine's entire secondary-market reputation. The standard Dr. Crane bottling and Georges III Rutherford average $138–$143 per bottle, while the entry-level Napa Valley Cabernet sits at $62. At $213 overall average, Myriad occupies the premium tier of the Napa secondary market. The estate produces around 500–800 cases total annually across all wines. The top vintage of 2017 for the Elysian Reserve reflects the strong critical reception that vintage received in St. Helena — a warmer, more concentrated year — and the estate's ability to translate exceptional fruit into benchmark-level wine.
