Remarkably pure and fresh. Pristine black cherry and blackberry, layered with beautiful violet aromas. Everything builds with precision and focus, supported by gorgeously firm, taut, mineral-rich tannins that bring energy and drive. The wine is compact and tightly wound at this youthful stage, its intensity truly emblematic of the vintage.
Heitz Cellar Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
A classic expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, this cuvée is drawn from organically certified, sustainably farmed estate vineyards across six of the valley’s most distinguished sub-appellations, including Oakville, Rutherford, Howell Mountain, St. Helena, Oak Knoll, and Calistoga. Vinified by lot and shaped through meticulous barrel selection, it captures the breadth and nuance of Napa Valley with uncommon poise. The finished wine is both generous and composed, marrying the depth of mountain fruit with the suppleness and perfume of the valley floor, all framed by the hallmark elegance and restraint of the Heitz style.
