Product Highlights
Aged in a combination of new and used large oak casks and barriques for two years with an additional year of bottle age before release. Made in the tradition that Joe Heitz started with the premiere release of Lot C-91 in 1969, the 2017 encompasses the opportunity for exploration that we cherish in blending this coveted wine.

Expert Reviews
Wow. Such a racy and exciting nose! This is quite agile and nimble, full of red and blue berries in the forefront, then complemented by spiced orange, earl grey, red plums, potpourri, savory plums and chocolate. Tense and elegant on the palate, which is all about succulent red berries, nuance and texture. Nothing redundant here. A great Napa cabernet sauvignon that has real definition. A beauty by all accounts! Drink or hold.
