Pale ruby-purple, the 2021 Pinot Noir Hirsch Vineyard features a slow unfurling of aromas, from herbal to savory: wild blackberries, crushed cherries and rhubarb give way to nuances of laurel, Earl Grey tea leaves and tobacco. The light-bodied palate has concentrated yet uniquely botanical flavors, with a chalky frame, fireworks of fresh acidity and a long, layered finish. 373 cases were made.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Hirsch Vineyard comes from vines located just one ridge in from the Pacific Ocean and planted in 1995 at 1,200 to 1,500 feet in elevation, Medium ruby in color, it's scented of blood orange, cranberry and rhubarb, with nuances of turned earth, conifer, seaweed and mushrooms. The palate is medium-bodied with an abundance of silty tannins, appealing bursts of acidity, nuanced yet concentrated fruits and a long finish. It deserves at least another 2-3 years in bottle. 318 cases were made.

The 2018 Pinot Noir Hirsch Vineyard is beautifully expressive, with a delicate frame and classic flavors. The nose offers fresh black fruits with touches of tea leaves, mushroom and tar, and the palate is earthy and perfumed, with a pleasant chalkiness and long, uplifted finish. This will improve with another couple years in bottle.
