Littorai, Hirsch Pinot Noir other_regions_italy the 2015 Chateauneuf du PapeThe 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.
