About This Wine
Family owned since its founding in 1961, Heitz Cellar’s legacy runs as deep as the roots throughout the Napa Valley; a winery legend that has helped shape the history of Napa Valley winemaking. In the late 1950s, pioneering vintner Joe Heitz ushered in Napa’s modern era with his iconic, globally celebrated wines, including Napa Valley’s first vineyard-designated Cabernet Sauvignon, the renowned Heitz Cellar Martha’s Vineyard. Fifty-eight years of the Heitz family’s dedication to viticulture, stewardship, and classic winemaking maintained the winery’s notoriety as a benchmark amongst its peers in California and Europe.In April 2018, Heitz Cellar entered an exciting new chapter as this rich legacy was passed into the hands of the Lawrence family.
Score
A Napa classic having a serious moment. The 2021 Heitz Napa Valley Cabernet earned an eye-opening 99 points from Decanter — a score rarely given to a non-single-vineyard Napa bottling. Long known for restraint and longevity rather than flash, Heitz delivers what modern Napa often chases: purity of cassis fruit, minty lift, fine tannins, and structure built to age rather than simply impress on release.
This is the house that defined traditional Napa Cabernet, and 2021 shows why — powerful without heaviness, polished without sweetness, and unmistakably balanced. In a market full of $150+ Cabernets, this drinks like serious Oakville pedigree at a far more approachable price point.--99 points, Decanter.
