Heitz Cellar
Trailside Vineyard Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon
Napa Valley, California, USA
1hr+ decant. Dark red, maroon color. Caramel and cherries on the nose. Wine is vibrant and deep, but has some tartness that made it seem disjointed. My prior bottle was much better.

Dec 21st, 2024This was phenomenal!! 1hr+ decant. Caramel dominated the nose and palate with candied fruit and classic Napa sweetness. Medium plus depth and finish. Dessert in a glass!

Apr 18th, 2024PnP. Lovely dark red color. Eucalyptus, cedar, caramel, and dark cherries on the nose. A nice sweetness on the palate with nice tannins and complexity. Might have to upgrade my score as this keeps getting better. Medium depth and long finish that has some port on the tail end.

Love this wine. Continues to develop from the licorice and cassis on the nose to the wonderful berry and oak finish. Lingers on the pallet for about 10 seconds.

Beautiful wine with a firm structure. Notes of lavender, cassis, plum, blackberry, clove, tobacco, and mocha.

Haven’t had a Heitz for quite awhile and never had much Trailside but really enjoyed this one.
