RATINGS

96Jeb Dunnuck

...coniferous aromatics of pine and resin as well as cherry fruit and turned earth. The palate has more juicy fruit and mid-palate depth, with dried violets and stony minerality, while still having beautiful stylistic levity.

95The Wine Advocate

...scents of red and black berries, underbrush, tobacco, licorice and dried earth with an undercurrent of spicy accents. Medium-bodied, silky and refreshing, it strikes a fine balance of intense, youthful fruit and savory, earthy accents, and it has a long, flavorful finish with notably more intensity than previous vintages.

95James Suckling

Aromas of ripe strawberries with blueberries, iron and cedar follow through to a tight and full body with firm, slightly chewy tannins and a fresh finish. Not giving much at the end of the palate. Spice, such as cloves, in the aftertaste.

94Vinous / IWC

...deep, fleshy and full of character. Blue/purplish fruit, lavender, spice, menthol and pine lend notable intensity...wine of gravitas, power and breath.

PRODUCER

Hirsch Vineyards

Hirsch Vineyards is on the Sonoma Coast. It was established in 1980 when David Hirsch began growing Pinot Noir and making wine. The estate today is still owned and operated by Hirsch, his wife and daughter. The estate makes Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast

Sonoma Coast AVA runs from San Pablo Bay in the south to Mendocino County in the north. It includes 7,000 vineyard acres and earned AVA status in 1987. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means it gets double the rainfall of nearby inland appellations and the ocean gives the appellation a relatively cool climate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can thrive in these conditions, and there are numerous producers making critically acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

TYPE

Red Wine, Pinot Noir

This red wine is relatively light and can pair with a wide variety of foods. The grape prefers cooler climates and the wine is most often associated with Burgundy, Champagne and the U.S. west coast. Regional differences make it nearly as fickle as it is flexible.
