Tasting Note
Fresh and energetic: sweet strawberries, orange peel and bergamot with underlying forest floor and licorice. Medium‑dark fruit, juicy acidity and notable 2020 tannic structure delivering a persistent, long finish.

Food Pairing
Western: roast chicken, mushroom risotto, seared salmon, pork tenderloin, pizza. Asian: miso‑glazed salmon, teriyaki chicken, Peking duck, char siu, shabu‑shabu with light dipping sauces.

Production Method
Small‑lot fermentation using the same methods as Hirsch’s estate Pinots; shorter barrel aging than flagship wines. Fruit sourced from Hirsch and Hellenthal (2020) with biodynamic and conventional farming.

Vineyard Info
Produced by Hirsch Vineyards (David Hirsch) on the West Sonoma Coast; Bohan‑Dillon blends estate and neighboring Hellenthal fruit from older vines (mostly 20–30 years). Producer uses biodynamic & conventional farming.
