Staff Pick Notes

Getting to Hirsch Vineyards is a long, choppy trek. Unmarked back roads, steep inclines, rugged terrain all leading to a breath taking view of the Sonoma coast line.

Tart red crushed fruit and crunchy marbled minerality is made possible by the high elevation and of course the fog. Reminiscent of the old world, earthiness akin to Burgundy. A wine that would pair seamlessly with prosciutto de parma and creamy goat cheese brie or even a classic Shack Burger. As for books, I'd pair this classy west coast wine with Joan Didion the California Queen herself.
