Winemaker Notes

The 1997 season had an early and dry spring, followed by a warm summer that resulted in both excellent quality wines and generous yields. The 1997 vintage has become one of the best of the decade. The first aromas are blackberries and fresh mint, with nuances of leather, cedar, dry forest and cola. The flavors are ripe berries, licorice, mocha, dried cherries, truffles and oak. This wine is a complex package with full texture and approachability, but with ageable tannins. This wine will go well with lamb, beef, game and pasta dishes.

For over 40 years, The Hess Collection has been producing complex, elegant wines sourced from estate vineyards high on Mount Veeder and in the far reaches of the Napa Valley. It is from these rugged landscapes that The Hess Collection winemaking team crafts exceptional luxury wines.

A pioneer by nature, Donald Hess was determined to defy convention and pursue winemaking at elevation. In 1978, he established The Hess Collection Winery on the site of one of the region’s oldest wineries on Mount Veeder. Although few in Napa Valley were cultivating vines at elevation, Donald Hess believed the volcanic slopes of Mount Veeder provided the ideal combination of soils and microclimates to yield elegant wines with rich, complex flavors.

Today, the next generation of The Hess family continues Donald’s legacy at the winery's home on Mount Veeder.
