The percentage of French wood used for the 1998 was only ten percent (and would climb a bit in coming years). The 1998 Monte Real is still not quite ready for primetime, but it is blossoming beautifully and is going to be a reference point vintage for this wine, as it offers up a complex aromatic constellation of red plums, cherries, raspberries, a gorgeous base of soil, cloves, fresh nutmeg, coconutty oak and just a whisper of cedar in the upper register. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and quite refined in personality, with lovely mid-palate depth, fine soil signature, moderate tannins and a long, vibrant and very, very promising finish. Great juice that still deserves some time in the cellar, but is certainly quite approachable today. 2025-2090.

The palate is medium-bodied and thankfully less obdurate than a decade ago; the tannins have mellowed in recent years and secondary notes of sage and graphite are now more expressive.

Our majestic Valley Oak Ranch is contiguous to the steep slopes of our Ink Grade Vineyard, and our Linda Falls Vineyard is a tiny jewel on Howell Mountain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThen there is our original site about a mile south of downtown St. Helena which we all especially treasure — the much-loved vineyard that frames Heitz Cellars' Sales \u0026amp; Tasting Room today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe have planted grapes on 375 of these acres, carefully selecting areas that convey the incomparable breadth of geography and climate that makes the Napa Valley the ideal place on earth for winegrowing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike its siblings, the Heitz Napa Valley bottling is 100 percent Cabernet Sauvignon. In earlier vintages it has been blended from grapes purchased from two or more vineyards. Henceforth, it will come from Heitz Vineyards located in Rutherford, augmented occasionally by an addition from \"Martha's Vineyard,\" \"Bella Oaks Vineyard,\" or both, depending on the vintage. Although this wine receives three and a half years of American and French oak aging, the Napa Valley Cabernet is vinified to be softer and more approachable when it is released. It has been frequently cited as an outstanding value in Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignons due to the extra time and care it receives in the cellars.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Heitz Cellar","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43265064992992,"sku":"112331","price":399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/heitz-cellar-cabernet-sauvignon_1.jpg?v=1663887195"},{"product_id":"chateau-lafite-rothschild-pauillac-premier-grand-cru-classe-2000-750ml","title":"Château Lafite Rothschild Pauillac (Premier Grand Cru Classé) 2000 750ml","description":"It was only during the first tastings, during running off, that we discovered the degree of the phenomenon: the finesse, the suppleness, and the complexity of the juices were already impressive. Tastings during the transfer of early wines revealed delicious aromas, with a powerful palate. The early wine had a tannic body and a promising finish. Subtle aromas of currants, leather, tobacco and cedar. Classic cigar box nose, with fruit. Full-bodied, with an amazing texture of silky, ripe tannins.
