HEINTZ WINES
Heintz Wines express the unique character of the land that the Heintz family has been living on and farming for four generations. Long known in the wine industry as a singular location that produces wines of depth and complexity, we feel it is our blessing and job to protect and nurture the land.  The coastal influences and cool climate allow for a longer growing season, intensifying the flavors of our Sonoma Coast Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Syrah wines.

Ultimately we feel there is only one-way to make wine - naturally and with as little intervention as possible. We are most interested in the land and what it has to say through its wine.  

Heintz wines speak about a single plot of land as well as the relationship and dedication that the Heintz family has with their land.

 
2007 Dutch Bill Creek Pinot Noir   2007 Heintz Chardonnay
With a pale yellow color, the aromatics are toasty with flint bread dough and baked Fuji apple. As the wine opens the trade mark lemon oil and chalk characters of Heintz ranch start to emerge. The taste remains very toasty and is kept fresh by the slate, lemon and white flower characters. Drink now through 2020
 
2007 Dutch Bill Creek Pinot Noir   2007 Heintz Pinot Noir
Dark plum red color that explodes out of the glass with aromas of plums, black cherries, lilac, cherry pie and iron. The taste has layers of both red and black fruit, blood orange and finishes on a distinct savory note. This wine has a wonderful balance and a long finish to it. Drink now through 2015
 
2007 Heintz Syrah   2007 Heintz Syrah
Inky black and purple in color with black berry pie, violets, bacon and green olives. Mouth watering and savory, the aromatics carry through to the taste and also include flavors of smoke, vanilla and baking spice. Great balance with a long finish. Drink now through 2018
 
 

DUTCH BILL CREEK
Dutch Bill Creek allows us to explore and bring together plots from our neighborhood in the Russian River Valley. The variations in soil types and mesoclimates mirror the diversity of the community that we live in. Each aspect of this diversity adds its own character and influence to the final product. Dutch Bill Creek wines embrace a chorus that speaks of the region.

As you open up and enjoy our wines, accept the invitation extended from Dutch Bill Creek to join and get to know our community.
