Presented blind alongside two wines from Bordeaux and one other wine from Napa. All wines were opened eight hours prior to service, decanted and immediately returned to their respective bottles. The wine pours a deep ruby color with a translucent core. Medium+ viscosity. Medium+ intensity with a mix of red fruits, some tart dark fruits, eucalyptus, and holiday fruit cake. The nose alone already had me thinking Martha’s. On the palate, the wine is dry with developing vinosity. Confirming the red fruits and tart dark fruits along with a menthol note that seems to linger on the finish. Now I was certain this was Martha’s. Medium+ tannins and medium+ acid. The wine has a very attractive freshness to it. Called the 2014 Heitz Martha’s Vineyard. This is a baby with decades of life left.

Medium to full bodied balanced and smooth . Clearly a step or 2 above the std Heitz cab but not sure if the 4 times multiple of price is worth it

Got so much better in 2 hours - perfect balance without overpowering fruit.
