Step aside, Guardians of the Galaxy. This cabernet sauvignon is the real blockbuster. The 100% varietal wine features a sterling structure and powerful nose laced with notes of red currant, mint, orange zest, and cinnamon. That explosion of flavors crescendos into a silky finish that’s equal parts long and luscious. Wine.com called 2014 Heitz Cellars “Martha’s Vineyard” a “masterpiece,” noting that “this has all the hallmarks of being one of the great vintages to come from this historic vineyard.”
Critics Scores
Vinous
The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Martha's Vineyard is a powerful wine. Beguiling aromatics make a strong opening statement. Pine, rosemary, mint, sweet red cherry, pomegranate and a touch of new oak give the wine its bright, lifted feel. Even with considerable air, and also taking into account the personality of the year, the 2013 Martha's remains closed down and not at all expressive.
James Suckling
The blackcurrants and blackberries with lavender and rosemary really pop out of the glass. Full body, tight and polished tannins and a long, flavorful finish. Shows tension and focus with a precise finish. Very finely textured. A classical wine. From organically grown grapes. Try in 2021 and onwards.
Wine Enthusiast
From Tom and Martha May's famous, organically farmed site in the heart of the appellation, this is a blockbuster vintage of the 100% varietal wine, immaculately structured and full of fresh acidity. The menthol is there, subtle, heightened by delicate, silky layerings of orange peel, red currant and cinnamon. Drink 2023–2033.
Wine & Spirits
This is a powerful vintage of Martha’s Vineyard, a huge wine following a graceful line, so it’s neither overwhelming nor oversaturated. It has the structural elasticity of 2013 in its tannins, a salty umami note that highlights the dark currant and green fig flavors. Joe Heitz made the first Martha’s Vineyard Cabernet in 1966, from the May family’s 34-acre parcel in western Oakville, with a small-berried selection of Cabernet that gives the concentrated fruit for this wine.
