Hirsch Vineyards Pinot Noir West Ridge Sonoma Coast 2019 750ml

Hirsch Vineyards helped pioneer the extreme Sonoma Coast when David Hirsch planted Pinot Noir on a remote ridge near the Pacific in 1980, and the site now anchors the Fort Ross-Seaview appellation. Long a sought-after source of fruit for other celebrated producers, the family has also made its own wines since 2002, today led by Jasmine Hirsch. West Ridge is one of the estate's parcel-focused Pinot Noir bottlings. The 2019 vintage was moderate and even, favoring freshness and finesse. Expect red cherry, wild berries, forest floor and spice with bright, coastal acidity. Drink now through about 2032.
