Blended from our prized single vineyards and exceptional estate parcels in St. Helena, the 2018 vintage was one of extraordinary quality for Heitz Cellar. The cooler to moderate temperatures during the growing season allowed us to balance sugar and phenolic maturity giving the 2018 Lot C-91 brilliant concentration and balance with a soft, generous tannin structure. The elegance and balanced acidity of the 2018 vintage will make this an incredible wine.
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.
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.
