"Super fresh in feel, despite some obvious density and weight, this sports dark cassis and bright violet notes, along with flashes of anise, singed alder, iron and tobacco. This keeps its sleek and focused feel through the mouthwatering finish. Best from 2023 through 2036. " Wine Spectator 94 Points

"Heitz purchased 40 acres of woodlands on Howell Mountain in 2002 and subsequently planted seven of those acres. The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Linda Falls Vineyard is an impressive effort from those vines, offering smoke and vanilla-tinged cassis aromas. Concentrated and dense, this is tightly wound but not overly tannic, with a long, blueberry-accented finish." Robert Parker 96 Points
