Heitz Wine Cellars

     
  This year the Heitz family and staff are extremely excited to celebrate our 50th anniversary! We are proud that the Heitz label stands for classic, quality wines around the world.

We strive for the ideal balance between science and nature's bounty that allows our wines to reflect the genuine character of the varietal and to express the unique geography of each vineyard. Heitz vineyards include 375 acres located throughout the Napa Valley, and all of our land is farmed sustainably and organically.

  Tasting Room Description:Opened in 2002 on the site of the family’s first vineyard, Heitz Sales & Tasting Room is constructed of native stone and mahogany as a graceful complement to nature. It was designed by local architects Ronn and Hannah Nunn with an elegant intimacy to convey the family's deep-rooted respect for the Napa Valley. Indigenous palms, lavender bushes and a mélange of citrus and other fruit trees frame an experimental vineyard which is home to numerous Cabernet Sauvignon clones.


 
  View from Tasting Room:  Lovely back patio vista of surrounding vineyards and eastern hills of St. Helena.
