Heitz Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 1974Martha's Vineyard
1vhs, 2hs, 1lbsl, 1lwisl, 3cc, 1ssos
Bottle (4)
Property of a San Diego gentleman. Wines removed from a temperature-controlled cellar.
"A monumental California Cabernet Sauvignon, it appears to have approached its plateau of maturity but should easily last for 20-25 more years... The spectacular, huge, Mouton-Rothschild-like nose of mint, cassis, lead pencil, and toast is remarkably youthful. Staggeringly concentrated, this full-bodied, super-rich wine possesses moderate tannin, fresh, lively acidity, and a blockbuster, rich, fleshy finish. This is a monumental effort!" (98 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #94, Aug. 1994)
"The 1974 Heitz Cellar Cabernet Sauvignon Martha's Vineyard has long been a Napa Valley Icon. For those who have not tasted it, this bottle shows why. Still vibrant and poised, the 1974 offers up red cherry fruit, dried herbs, sage, licorice and blood orange, all driven by bright acids that suggest ageability from this point on will be determined by storage and corks, as the wine itself is pretty near immortal." (98 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, April 2022)
