ine Spectator
underscored this wine’s legendary status
by selecting
Heitz Wine Cellars Martha’s Vineyard
Cabernet
as one of the Top 12 wines of the 20th Century. The
1997
vintage is a stunning example of copious black currant fruit
intermixed with soil and mild pleasant undertones of licorice. The
wine is medium to full-bodied, pure, ripe and nicely-textured with
a lengthy finish. In the mouth, the Cabernet fruit is wonderfully
balanced with firm tannins, and the richness of layers adds to the
complexity and intrigue.
“Heitz Wine Cellars has followed their impressive 1996 with this
equally splendid cuvée honoring the late Joe Heitz.”—Robert Parker.
These vintage 1997 magnums, direct from the winery, are a rare
offering with perfect provenance.
