The “gold” of the Heimark property lies not in the shiny metal that long-ago prospectors sought, but rather in the soil. Rocky, volcanic, and fractured, this challenging environment cultivates resilient, deeply rooted vines. The struggle that the vines endure in this terrain results in grapes of lustrous quality and intense flavors. The fruit is infused with hints of blackberry, black cherries, boysenberry, plums, cloves, and wild herbs. These singular grapes make for spirited, well-balanced red wines with great energy, natural lift, and a lengthy finish. In 1997, the vineyard development was placed in the highly skilled hands of vineyard manager Michael Wolf, viticulturist Mary Hall Maher (Etude and Harlan Estate). Fourteen acres were identified for Cabernet Sauvignon and one acre for Petit Verdot.

The wines are crafted by Françoise Peschon who was the winemaker at the fabled Araujo Estate (Eisele Vineyard) for fourteen years. She is also the winemaker at VHR, Vine Hill Ranch, Cornell and her own Drinkward Peschon winery, and is an integral part of the winemaking team at Accendo Cellars.

Vinous 97 Points: “The 2018 Heimark Cabernet Sauvignon is a grand, dramatic wine. Inky, deep and outrageously beautiful, this 2018 Cabernet dazzles from the very first taste. Dark cherry, chocolate, licorice and spice all build in the glass. Firm tannins need time to come together, but there is an inner sweetness to the 2018 vintage. More than anything else what stands out is the wine's stature. All I can say is wow!”
