Concentrated and muscular, with lime zest, crushed oyster shell and honeyed stone fruit building intensity through the mid-palate. The texture carries unusual grip and weight for Heintz, suggesting this vintage pushed ripeness further than typical. Allow two years for the phenolic tension to resolve.
