Heitz Cellar
Linda Falls Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Howell Mountain, Napa Valley, California, USA
First introduced in 2013, Linda Falls Vineyard is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon, from 7 acres on Howell Mountain where grapes were first planted in 2002. Aged for 3 years, 2 years in 100% new French oak and 1 year in neutral American oak. Deep Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruits with bramble herb spice. On the palate, black cherry and blackberry flavors with currant, tobacco and herb leaf notes, has an underlying subtle sweetness. Full-body, fine juicy soft tannins, nicely integrated, balanced with acidity ending with earth, nutty character. Very Nice! Tasting Sample!

This plays right down the middle as far as old school and modern Napa cabs go. Something for everyone to enjoy.

Haven’t had this since 2019, aging fantastically.
As with all other Heitz you need to hold 10-20 years minimum.

Very small production and one I’ve never heard about. While solid it was hard to get my head around it after having that ‘13 Martha’s
