Note di degustazione
The 2020 Chardonnay Charles Heintz Vineyard is endowed with notable density and power. Orchard fruit, white flowers, almond and strong mineral accents are front and center. Texturally, the 2020 has a phenolic-like quality that is distinctive, but not especially typical of Heintz Chardonnays. I would give it a another year or two in bottle to see if some of the edges soften.

Cooked apple with resin and some cedar and lemon curd. Full-bodied with a solid core of fruit and a complex, fresh and lightly nutty finish. Drink now.
The Charles Heintz Vineyard is an exceptional site that was planted in 1982 on Goldridge sandy loam. the most layered and intense of the wines in its aromas, the 2020 Chardonnay Charles Heintz Vineyard is expressive with flinty reduction, pineapple, yellow apple, and white flowers, while the palate is consistent and ripe with honeysuckle and pear.
