2018 HEITZ CELLAR LOT C-91 NAPA VALLEY CABERNET SAUVIGNON (6 BOTTLE SET) A visionary pioneer, Joe Heitz etched his name into Napa Valley history by introducing the region’s first vineyard-designated Cabernet Sauvignon from Martha’s Vineyard in the late 1950s. He subsequently founded Heitz Cellar in 1961. Lot C-91 traces its origins to the autumn of 1969. Joe had a profound realization: by carefully selecting grapes from his finest parcels, he could craft a wine that transcended the sum of its components. Lot C-91 embodies the culmination of five decades of relentless dedication, experimentation, and an unwavering pursuit of excellence. A passionate homage to Joe Heitz, who passed in 2000, this cuvée is meticulously crafted in each vintage. The 2018 vintage, predominantly sourced from estate vineyards in St. Helena, incorporates fruit from the revered appellations of Oakville, Rutherford, and Howell Mountain. The result is a flawlessly balanced Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, a timeless testament to Joe Heitz and his enduring legacy. Heitz Cellar’s commitment to traditional winemaking techniques, such as fermentation in stainless steel tanks and aging in a combination of French and American oak barrels, enhances the wine's depth and longevity. The 2018 Lot C-91 is a testament to the winery's philosophy of crafting wines that are true to their origins and capable of aging gracefully for decades. This vintage, in particular, showcases the balance and finesse that are hallmarks of Heitz Cellar, making it a fitting tribute to Joe Heitz's legacy and vision for Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.
