Heitz Wine Cellars Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage 1973

About the wine

Heitz Wine Cellar is an iconic Napa wine producer located just south of St Helena. It is most famous for its single vineyard wines made of Cabernet Sauvignon, and in particular the Martha's Vineyard wine, which is one of Napa's "Cult Cabernet" labels.The style of Heitz's Cabernet Sauvignon wines has remained consistent over the years. The winery uses French oak over American, and fruit is harvested slightly earlier than much of the rest of the region, giving a wine that is slightly higher in acidity than most.

Used 2 blade remover to avoid trouble with the cork.
Dark Ruby with brown showing at the rim.
Some sediment.
Bouquet was beautiful and strong. Raisens, gravel, leather, plums, violets.
It was full on the mouth with all the beautiful complexity of the bouquet. Tannin had softened and the luscious finish was pleasingly long.
