This is a delicious and restrained Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley.

Full-bodied with medium acidity.

Showing red and black fruits with wood, earth, vegetables, spices, tobacco leaf, dark coffee and eucalyptus.

Grippy finish with raspberries.

This 6 year old Cabernet is still young and very tight. Might be in its dumb phase at this point, so it would be nice to try it again in 3 years.

Needs 10 years to mature properly.
The eucalyptus notes overwhelm the black fruits at the moment.

Showing good structure and nice complexity.

Wine Enthusiasts 93 points. Wine Spectator 93 points. Wine Advocate 92 points.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

14% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

After missing a ‘70s and ‘80s Heitz vertical many years ago, I vowed to seek out a bottle as all the comments from the tasting were astoundingly positive. My last bottle of Heitz Martha’s was the ‘01 (which was great) a few years ago, but at 46yrs, this was quite the experience.

The ‘78 has a bit of a legendary status, so expectations were high. Upon opening, the cork was in good shape (sigh of relief) and the color was unbelievably dark ruby with some bricking (another sigh of relief). The singular signature menthol/eucalyptus began to fill the glass, alongside aromatics of red berry fruits, espresso, some sort of sweet brown sugar/caramel note, and a savory-graphite type note too. Beautifully elegant on the palate with more red fruit, herbs (bay leaf?), and even some pipe tobacco (subdued, not in your face), but it sports the classical old Napa cab profile that is pure. Spectacular wine, and I could simply smell the wine all day…the aromatics were so powerful the entire time.

Open in bottle for three hours and powered through the entire time. Wish I had another so I could have the same experience! — a month ago
