Staff Pick Notes

Such Great Heitz! This is a stellar 2012 Napa Cab with layers and layers of beauty showing right now. It is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and sees 3 years of oak aging, truly showcasing the varietal as well as classic Napa style. On the nose: cassis, black cherries, vanilla, sautéed mushrooms, fresh turned earth, vibrant cedar wood, cinnamon, balsamic, black pepper, orange peel, and dark chocolate-covered violets.

Drink tonight with a rib eye steak or cellar for years to come!
