Our Story

A legacy built on the belief that great wine is an act of devotion.

Joe Heitz founded this estate in 1961 with a singular vision: to produce wines that truly expressed the character of Napa Valley's terroir. What began as a small plot of land has grown into one of the valley's most respected names.

Every bottle carries forward that original conviction — that exceptional wine demands nothing less than meticulous attention, time-honored techniques, and a deep respect for the land. Our vineyards are farmed with care, our harvests are hand-selected, and our aging process allows each vintage to reach its full potential.
