Heimark

Blend: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage production: 563 cases From the multi-awarding winning winemaker, to an iconic vineyard manager behind some of the most famous names in Napa, and a terroir... cherished for over 25 years by some of the Valley's legendary Estates, there is so much to get excited about in the Heimark 2019. The team at Heimark is something of a dream line-up. Françoise Pechson was crowned Winemaker of The Year 2019 by The San Francisco Chronicle, and again as Antonio Galloni's Winemaker of The Year 2021. Her CV includes working with Jean Delmas at Château Haut Brion, and 20 years as winemaker for the legendary Araujo Estate. In addition to her primary position at Heimark, Françoise is also the winemaker for Vine Hill Ranch (VHR) and Accendo Cellars. It's little wonder Galloni called her "One of the most influential and highly respected winemakers in Napa Valley." Then there's the vineyard itself, described by legendary winemaker Phlippe Melka as "The Pauillac of Napa Valley." It was planted in 1997 by Harlan Estate's own Mary Hall Mayer, and is managed by Michael Wolf - the man behind Scarecrow, To Kalon, and VHR. It has been a prized source of fruit for some of Napa's most iconic wines since 1997, leading up to the Heimark Family releasing their own label in 2016. Many of the great Araujo Estate Cabs were composed primarily of Heimark fruit, as has the multiple 100-point Lail Vineyards' J.Daniel Cuvée Cabernet Sauvignon (made by Melka) since 2008. Arkenstone Estate also produce a remarkable single-vineyard Cabernet from this awesome site. A critically acclaimed winemaker; the dream vineyard team; a site revered by Napa's top Estates; critical acclaim... This Cabernet Sauvignon commands a place in every cellar and collection.
