Description

Heitz Martha`s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 1969 is a mature single-vineyard red wine from the Napa Valley of California. Family owned since its founding six decades ago, Heitz Cellar was a pillar of the new-wave Napa Valley wine industry that began in the early 1960s. It is best known for its single vineyard wines made of Cabernet Sauvignon, and in particular the Martha`s Vineyard wine, which is one of Napa`s iconic labels. The 1969 vintage was bottled in September 1973. "Elegant, with great intensity and depth and the characteristic Martha`s mintiness that complements the rich currant and cherry flavours. Great length on the finish." Wine Spectator, 1999
