The score for 1999 Heitz Cellars Martha s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley is 95 points from John Gilman and the tasting note - 1999 was only the fourth vintage “back” for Martha’s Vineyard, after its replanting in the late 1980s, but the wine is absolutely spectacular. The alcohol here is a tad lower than the 14.5 percent of the 2005 and 2002 Martha’s, as it weigh in at 14.2 percent. The bouquet is absolutely a classic expression of this inimitable terroir, as it soars from the glass in a blaze of red and black cherries, eucalyptus, raw cocoa, Rutherford Dust, woodsmoke and cedar. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and suave on the attack, with a great core of fruit, a touch of mid-palate tariness, ripe tannins, superb focus and great grip on the very, very long, refined and intense finish. A great young vintage of Martha’s Vineyard.
