Today's offer, from the excellent 2021 vintage, was sourced from Heitz Cellar's holdings throughout the Napa Valley. Aged for three years on the lees in large oak casks, followed by an additional 15 months in French oak barrels (20% new), it is fresh and elegantly structured, with ripe black and red fruits, polished tannins, and ample acidity. It has the bones for aging, yet is drinking beautifully now with a brief decanting.

94 points, James Suckling:
"Dark fruit aromas of blackberries, bitter chocolate, dried herbs, blackcurrants, black olives, and graphite. The palate is full-bodied with a textural, rounded mouthfeel and finely integrated tannins, leading to a savory, fruit-driven finish. Delicious. Drink or hold. (5/21/25)
93 points, Vinous:
"The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley) is fabulous. Plump and vibrant, with good up-front fruit and bright acids, the 2021 captures the essence of modern classicism that is typical of the Heitz wines today. This is a superb entry-level offering from Heitz. Floral overtones brighten the finish." (12/24)
