Antonio Galloni
The 2012 Pinot Noir Hirsch Vineyard possesses serious depth and power. At the same time, the 2012 is quite closed in on itself, which is not surprising, as Hirsch often gives wines of notable structure. It`s hard not to imagine that the 2012 will be even better in another few years. If there is one site where the fruit might benefit from a little longer time in barrel, Hirsch is it. There is a good chance the Hirsch will blossom with more time in bottle. Time will tell. 92+ points

(13.9% alcohol). Good medium red. Musky, savory aromas of raspberry and peppery herbs. Supple and vinous but rather backward, with good peppery lift to the classically dry red berry flavors. Not hugely ripe but nicely fine-grained and delicate in the mid-palate. Finishes with well-integrated ripe tannins and lingering raspberry and strawberry perfume. A lovely pinot noir with aging potential. 91+ points
