Napa Valley, California, USA
2008 Martha's Vineyard -in equipoise even in this blush of youth. Savory woodsy scents of cedar and eucalyptus, frankincense and sugi tree incense all carry currants and taut ripened blackberries with a bit of that licorice note we admire among hackberries. The texture is sure and finishes long and full and on the tongue a touch meaty in all its breadth -which I love even now but is sure to become silkier still with a patient rest. Good luck! A wonderful wine to remind drifters back to Napa's roots.

Jun 18th, 2015A fine performance, the 2008 Heitz Cellar Martha's Vineyard Cabernet is rock solid. Black currants, attractive earth and underlying mint.😏Drinking pretty good now; will age up to 10 years from now #wine #cabernetsauvignon #heitzwinecellars #classic #napavalley

Aug 15th, 2013Such a baby! This wine needs time. It is showing lots of dark ripe currants and blackberries but it will take a few years for the oak to integrate fully with the fruit. Considering this is one of the smallest releases of Martha's Vineyard ever, it is definitely worth waiting.
