Peter Heitz
Winemaker, Turnbull Wine Cellars
Fourteen generation Vigneron hailing from Alsace and forth generation Napa Valley Winemaker, Peter Heitz grew up kicking the dirt clods of Carneros on one of the pioneering vineyards in the region, later honing his vineyard background farming in the Calistoga Appellation, on dirt first planted to vines by his great grandparents in 1904.
Throughout his youth, Peter continued his wine education—tending vines, tasting fruit; understanding its spectrum of flavors, textures and densities, and learning how to farm to achieve balance. After attending UC Santa Cruz, he spent nine vintages crafting the venerable Beringer Reserve wines, starting in the cellar and working up to the role of Associate Winemaker.
