Heitz Cellar, Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Get to know: Heitz Cellar, Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

A truly iconic Napa Valley red wine.

Tasting Note

Heitz Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 is a powerful yet elegant expression of the world-class red wine. Crafted from organically farmed fruit across six prized sub-appellations, it delivers a seamless balance of ripe blackberry fruit, savoury spice and refined structure. This classic Cabernet Sauvignon showcases both the heritage of Napa winemaking and the estate’s commitment to quality and sustainability. Deep ruby in colour with expressive aromas of blackberry, cassis, nutmeg and cedar. The palate is full-bodied and layered, with concentrated flavours of dark cherry, plum and spice framed by firm yet silky tannins. A fine line of acidity lifts the wine, leading to a long, elegant finish with notes of cocoa and savoury oak. Built for longevity, yet already beautifully harmonious.

Top food pairings:

  • Classic roast beef with Yorkshire pudding
  • Lamb cutlets with rosemary and garlic
  • Mature cheddar or Comté cheese
Kate Says

"This is a big bold Cabernet with pedigree that I'd quite fancy for myself. Bold, structured and deeply satisfying, yet with a freshness that keeps it elegant. Perfect for a special dinner and drinking very well now."
