Winemaker Notes
The 2020 Heitz Cellar Quartz Creek Vineyard Chardonnay having bright, vibrant, and elegant characteristics, with notes of Meyer Lemon, Hazelnut, and Calla Lily on the nose. The palate is tightly wound with impressive energy, refreshing, and pure, featuring notes of green and yellow apples, white peaches, and hints of chalk dust, acacia honey, and lightly browned toast.
About Winery
Heitz Cellar, founded in 1961 by Joe and Alice Heitz, is a historic Napa Valley winery known for its pioneering role in single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon production. Joe Heitz, mentored by André Tchelistcheff, helped elevate Napa's reputation and was the first to label a wine with a single vineyard name: Martha's Vineyard. In 2018, the Heitz family sold the winery to Gaylon Lawrence, marking a new chapter for the estate.
