Community Tasting Note

Mrbuzz Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 12, 2019 - The story goes that when Joe Heitz came close to running out of selling the reg Napa bottling, and the precious Martha's was still resting in barrel, he would dip into the Martha barrels and bottle this wine, the C-91, so he could continue to sell wine to his loyal customers.
Little concern for this bottle as the ullage was down to the shoulder...but after the cork came out in one piece...the wine was in fine shape! Still quite dark and youthful looking...amply fruit with slight sweetness...plum, currants, dried cherry...soft and delicate structure with a beautiful polished sheen...very complex, showing classic Heitz mint/euc/dried herbs nuances...dusty old cellar cedar spice...leather, mixed nuts...drank well till the end.
