HeitzCellarLotC-91CabernetSauvignon2018(750ml)

Heitz Cellar Lot C-91 Cabernet Sauvignon is a classic and robust red wine from Napa Valley. It showcases inviting aromas of blackberries, cassis, and a touch of vanilla. The palate delivers flavors of dark cherry, blackcurrant, and well-integrated tannins, with a long and structured finish. This Cabernet Sauvignon pairs beautifully with grilled meats, hearty stews, or aged cheeses.

Critic Ratings

Wine Spectator Review – Rated 93:

Expressive, with a bold menthol note followed quickly by boysenberry and blackberry compote flavors wrapped in black licorice. The long finish has a tug of earth amid a generally velvety feel, while the menthol note curls around the fruit. Distinctive.

Wine Enthusiast Review – Rated 93:This robust, well-structured wine hugs tasty black cherries, black olives and charcoal flavors in firm tannins and will certainly improve and expand with time. Meaty, black peppery accents join with the herbs and black fruits for a complex, concentrated expression.

Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate Review – Rated 92:There’s a gentle herbaceousness to the cherry fruit in Heitz’s 2018 Lot C-91, making it a bit more like redcurrant than true cherry. A blend of fruit from Oakville, Rutherford, St. Helena and Howell Mountain, it’s medium-bodied but more expansive and generous than the regular bottling, with a nice touch of velvet layered in on the mid-palate and a long, fruit-driven finish.
