The Winery
Heitz Wine Cellars
In 1961, Joe Heitz purchased an 8 acre vineyard south of St. Helena, and it did not take long for him to establish a stellar reputation as a new breed of winemaker. His Cabernet from Martha’s Vineyard was the first to be a vineyard designated wine in Napa Valley. The vineyard produces a distinctive, beautiful wine that has been a collector’s favorite for over 50 years and, we are thrilled to offer you the monumental bottles from Heitz Wine Cellars today.
Tasting Notes
- WE96
- This tremendous 100% varietal wine hails from Oakville and was aged over three years in oak. Juicy red-cherry fruit and a compelling hint of caramel greet the palate, framed by elegant, fine tannins and a subtle minty tone in the background. Balanced and rewarding from start to finish, it has years ahead of it to develop further nuance. Enjoy 2022–2030. Cellar Selection
- JS96
- Intense aromas of mint, eucalyptus, dark berries, currants and redwood. Citrus peel to boot. Full-bodied, layered and very pretty with silky tannins and a juicy finish. Tight and subtle. Retro cool. From organically grown grapes.
