Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Vintage Overview

2016 OVERVIEW

At first the 2016 Heitz Cellar Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon feels cool and composed, then layers of black cherry, plum and dark currant roll in, edged by herbal lift and a gentle cocoa-like depth. The palate is concentrated yet beautifully straight-lined, with very fine tannins and a long, savory finish that keeps the fruit humming rather than shouting. It’s a refined, classically built Napa Cabernet that shows its pedigree through precision more than power.

Long aged in oak and in bottle, it is famed for its distinctive mint/eucalyptus, bay leaf and dark berry profile, classic structure, and remarkable longevity, and is widely regarded as one of California’s benchmark vineyard-designated Cabernets.
