Product Description

Overview

Winery: Heritage School

A steep, rocky site with red volcanic soils results in our most structured and concentrated wine. Planted in 1998 using 110R rootstock and clone 337 Cabernet Sauvignon our Hillside Vineyard produces wines as breathtaking as the views from its slopes. These tiny, dark blue berries ripen near the end of September thanks to cool afternoon temperatures allowing for increased hang time and developed flavors.

Reviews:

"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Missiaen’s Hillside Vineyard represents a serious essence of Cabernet Sauvignon. It is almost painfully extracted and concentrated, but tannins are sweet, the wine enormously well-endowed, rather massive and somewhat old-school. This reminds me of how the old Mayacamas Cabernets tasted from 1968-1975: thick, super-dense bombs of massive fruit extract. This certainly possesses those characteristics. Forget it for at least 10 years and drink over the following 30 or more."

- Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (Issue #222, December 2015), 96+ pts

"The 2013 Cabernet Sauvignon Missiaen's Hillside Vineyard is the most powerful and structured of these wines. Beams of tannin set the framework as this powerful, intense Cabernet shows off its distinctive personality. The purity of the fruit here is simply remarkable. Rose petal, mint, red cherry and savory herbs add the closing layers of nuance. - Antonio Galloni"

Harris Estate Vineyards

We are a small producer of premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon from the Calistoga AVA. We have three estate-grown vineyards planted in the diverse terrain of our 48-acre property. The wines from these vineyards are crafted by our winemaker Thomas Rivers Brown and perfectly reflect the terroir of the Franz Valley area. Once a private boys school, our sprawling property offers a glimpse into the hard work and dedication we have put forth into Harris Estate Vineyards. The vineyards and wine have become a true way of living for us and we hope to share it with you.

Tucked in the hillsides northwest of downtown Calistoga, Harris Estate Vineyards continues to produce wines of impressive purity and texture. These full-bodied wines have personalities that reflect

their mountainside location and ideal grape growing soils. Year after year I am impressed by the quality of grapes grown here, making this one of Napa Valley’s finest up-valley vineyards.

–Thomas Rivers Brown, Winemaker

Date Founded: 1997

Owner: David and Linda Jenkins

Winery Philosophy: David and Linda proudly stand by their vineyard specific, estate grown Cabernet Sauvignon wines as among the best produced in Napa Valley.

David and Linda Jenkins began their life with wine through twenty year of trips to the wine regions of France, Italy, and California. After years of searching for just the right vineyard property, they finally took the plunge and acquired Harris Estate Vineyards in May of 2014. Novices to the entire business of wine, David and Linda are enthusiastic not only with a quest for knowledge, but a strong desire to seek new horizons and friends.
