Dear Members and Guests,
Heitz Cellars, a cornerstone of Napa Valley's storied wine history, has been crafting exceptional wines since its founding in 1961 by Joe Heitz. Renowned for its commitment to quality, tradition, and innovation, Heitz Cellars has played a pivotal role in establishing Napa Valley as one of the world’s premier wine regions. The winery is celebrated for its iconic Cabernet Sauvignon, particularly the legendary Martha’s Vineyard and Trailside Vineyard bottlings.
From its early days, Heitz Cellars set itself apart by focusing on single-vineyard designates, a practice that was relatively uncommon at the time. The Martha’s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, first released in 1966, is perhaps the most famous expression of this philosophy. Its elegant structure, complex aromas of mint and eucalyptus, and remarkable aging potential have earned it a place among the world’s great wines.
In 2018, Heitz Cellars entered a new chapter when it was acquired by the Lawrence family, who have deep roots in Napa Valley. The Lawrence Wine Estates include a portfolio of historical fine wine estates that includes Heitz Cellar, Stony Hill, Burgess, Haynes Vineyard, Ink Grade, Trailside Vineyard, Château Lascombes in Bordeaux, and Demeine Estates.
Our honoured guest is Ms Philana Bouvier, president of Demeine Estates. Demeine Estates is a producer, importer and marketer of the world’s finest wines based in the heart of Napa Valley. Under Bouvier’s leadership, Demeine Estates has expanded their portfolio to include some of the most iconic producers across Napa Valley Cabernet, Chianti Classico, Chablis, Champagne, Prosecco and Burgundy.
