The 2009 Chardonnay Estate caresses the palate with layers of fruit in a big, extroverted style of Chardonnay. Despite the wine’s size, there is plenty of minerality to provide support. Lemon, citrus peel and white flowers are some of the many notes that round out the insistent, saline finish. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2019. This is a thrilling set of wines from Hirsch that captures the essence of everything that makes the Sonoma Coast so compelling. The wines are made with natural primary and secondary fermentations and are bottled without fining or filtration.Tel. (707) 847-3600
