Unremarkable Cali cab. Some oak, but it seemed to be a bit more in the restrained Bordeaux vein, not an oak and fruit bomb. I appreciate that, but unfortunately the execution didn't have impact. Perhaps with time to open up, but based on a tasting, this was an 87.

Nice that it is organic. Wish it tasted better. Drinkable... good, not excellent.

For the price I expected a little more from this cab. It was heavy in tannins, dry, and just wasn't what I'd hoped from Heller.

Decent qpr - tannins have been tamed by time,
oak is subdued, but it is about the right time to drink this.
