Heitz Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley 2017

Heitz Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon is a full-bodied and complex red wine that boasts deep flavors of dark fruit, cedar, and cocoa. This wine is deeply rooted in the terroir of Napa Valley, where each grape is hand-picked and carefully fermented in oak barrels. The resulting wine is intense and elegant, with a long finish and smooth tannins. This quality Cabernet Sauvignon has been aged for up to three years before release, allowing the wine to reach its full potential. Ideal for pairing with hearty meats and bold cheeses, this wine is a true testament to the excellence of Californian winemaking.

Family owned since its founding in 1961, Heitz Cellar’s legacy runs as deep as the roots throughout the Napa Valley; a winery legend that has helped shape the history of Napa Valley winemaking. In the late 1950’s, pioneering vintner Joe Heitz ushered in Napa’s modern era with his iconic, globally celebrated wines, including Napa Valley’s first vineyard-designated Cabernet Sauvignon, the renowned Heitz Cellar Martha’s Vineyard. Fifty-eight years of the Heitz family’s dedication to viticulture, stewardship, and classic winemaking, maintained the winery’s notoriety as a benchmark amongst its peers in California and Europe.

In April, 2018, Heitz Cellar entered an exciting new chapter as this rich legacy was passed into the hands of the Lawrence family, whose deep roots in agriculture and commitment to the same core values of fine winemaking made it a perfect match. The wines are made with an unwavering commitment to quality from organically farmed, 100% Napa Valley fruit, and a commitment to the sustainability of Napa Valley.
