Heitz Cellars, Martha's Vineyard, Cabernet Sauvignon--Vintage 1974
Napa Valley
Lot 76 has bin-soiled labels
One of the greatest California Classics. Certainly well remember being hugely impressed when I first tasted this vintage as it was getting into its stride - in 1979. Fragrant, rich, spicy - the eucalyptus scent. Two very recent notes including a superb magnum and two faultless bottles. Still deeply coloured, fairly intense, unmistakable eucalyptus on the nose; crisp, high extract, excellent flavour and length. Great Napa classic. Last tasted October 2000. MB.
