1987 Heitz Cellar, Martha's Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, Magnum (1.5L)

JG96 "The bouquet is deep and absolutely stunning, as it delivers a complex blend of black cherries, mint, a touch of chocolate, Rutherford dust, pretty mineral tones and an exotic topnote of allspice. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very pure and transparent, with a seamless attack, a sappy core, and great length and grip on the tangy and perfectly poised finish. A great vintage of Martha's that is a bit undeservedly overlooked in the pantheon of Martha?s Vineyard bottlings." JG June 2011
