Heitz Cellar - Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Beautiful deep purple color Raspberries, smoke, vanilla, currant on the nose On the palate, cherries, chocolate, black tea Heavy acidity and strong tannins, smooth full-bodied wine Complex wine with a long finish. A lot of the complexity comes on the finish.

Good wine, but still lots of tannins. Needs more time (~5 years). Nose had pencil shavings and some licorice. Main body was fruit with strong tannins. Wait.

Napa 2023: the quieter version; 2/6/2023-2/11/2023 (Napa/Sonoma California): Even more classic styling than the 2017. I get more of the mint/eucalyptus here. A hint of floral. Black fruits. Generally all very soft. Tannin barely there. Very pretty wine.
