We caught up with our Director of W**emaking Brittany Sherwood yesterday for her take on how vintage 2026 is coming together at Heitz Cellar:

"2026 is shaping up to be an incredible vintage! We got an early start this year, but with some cooler weather at the start of September, we were blessed with a brief respite that allowed our Cabernet Sauvignon to reach the balanced maturity we look for each year. The moderate heat the second week of September pushed flavors right where we needed them to be, and we are now 90% through harvest. Flavors, concentration, and energy are all present in our ongoing fermentations, and we are excited to see how these w**es develop as they age for the next 4-5 years in our cellar."

We're so honored to see our 100-point 2021 Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon in lights in Times Square.

A big thanks goes to our friends at the Portuguese Cork Association, reminding us that natural cork is the most sustainable, sensible choice. We wouldn't have it any other way.

There is an incredible dining opportunity coming on October 10th: an exclusive event celebrating the 50th Anniversary of the Judgment of Paris, featuring a seven-course dinner by Christopher Kostow, one of Napa Valley’s most acclaimed chefs, attended by w**emakers from each historic w**ery.

Just 8 seats remain allocated to Heitz Cellar. Our W**emaker Brittany Sherwood and Estate Director Erik Elliott MS will be in attendance at this unforgettable, one-time event. This dinner will be hosted by invitation at Stag's Leap W**e Cellars, so for more information, send us a direct message.

This annual convivium always recharges our spirit, and it couldn’t come at a better time for our team as they remain in the throes of harvest. We’re so grateful for each of you who joined us at the Home Ranch to celebrate the 2026 crush with our w**emaking team and chef S***a. ⁠

A big thanks is due, as ever, to our fantastic partners at Lexus USA for helping to bring this night to life.

We're humbled and grateful for the mention of 2018 Heitz Trailside Vineyard in Robb Report's "7 Great Cabernet Sauvignons From Napa’s Storied Rutherford AVA," by Mike DeSimone and Jeff Jenssen.

The duo called it "fantastic w**e," offering "aromas of rolled to***co leaf, black plum, and black cherry that transition to flavors of dried Mediterranean herbs, blackberry, cassis, and a touch of both iron and Rutherford dust in the finish."

Harvest is here. Pickers snip the purple bunches in the cool dark before dawn. The Home Ranch is humming around the clock as the fruit comes in. September is when all of our patient work in our vineyards pays off, and we kick off the season with our Luminary Harvest Weekend.

There is no better time to visit. Hop in our our Lexus LX 600 to see Trailside Vineyard in style, in our Rutherford Legacy tour. Reservations for this 2-3 hour tour are understandably limited.

2021 is the kind of pitch-perfect vintage that doesn't come along very often. Our W**emaker Brittany Sherwood describes how it all fell into place.

Guests can taste all of our 2021 single-vineyard w**es, including the 100-point 2021 Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, when they book The Single-Vineyard Legacy at our Salon in St. Helena.

We wanted to extend a special word of thanks to W**e Spectator Grand Award Winner Spago Beverly Hills for featuring our Lot C-91 Cabernet Sauvignon and our Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon.⁠
⁠
Other Grand Award winners have welcomed our w**es on to their lists recently, notably Sierra Mar in Big Sur, the legendary Bern's in Tampa, and The Little Nell in Aspen. We are honored and grateful.

Summer at Heitz means harvest preparations are beginning. While our viticultural team monitors every vineyard's progress, you can witness this unforgettable season firsthand at our Home Ranch in St. Helena.

There's no better destination in the valley for classically-proportioned, ageworthy Cabernet Sauvignon, with a tasting program curated by a Master Sommelier.

We'd love to make some new summer memories with you. Seats fill up quickly this time of year, but you may reserve them at https://heitzcellar.com/visit/heitz-cellar-salon/.
