Hirsch Vineyards "The Bohan-Dillon" Pinot Noir (2023)
Sonoma Coast, California. Certified biodynamic farming. David Hirsch was inspired to create the Bohan-Dillon Pinot Noir as an homage to the great village wines of France: a wine full of place and personality, made with the same care and attention as the top wines, yet at a good price. The wine is juicy and full, with great energy and freshness. The 2023 Bohan-Dillon Pinot Noir is a blend of three West Sonoma Coast sites: the Hirsch and Hellenthal vineyards, situated contiguous to each other, and the Heintz vineyard, located about 20 miles south of Hirsch. This is the third vintage of Bohan-Dillon to include fruit from the Heintz vineyard. We selected Heintz due to its storied reputation and our faith in Charlie Heintz, a third-generation farmer. Expressive and elegant--on the palate, the wine is juicy and drinkable, with gentle tannins. With air, notes of rhubarb, sumac, and forest floor. This is a wine of fantastic personality and character. It can be enjoyed young with a wide variety of foods and can be served chilled for those warm summer days when you still crave red wine. It is recommended to open this wine one hour before drinking.
