DIRECT FROM THE LIBRARY OF HEITZ WINE

CELLARS AND SIGNED BY KATHLEEN HEITZ

MYERS. REMARKABLE!

W

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.
