Anise, wild herbs and Bing cherry come together on the nose, and elegantly transition into a smoky tea-like profile. The best coastal Pinot Noirs boast omnipresent tannins buffered by precise acidity; the Hirsch site defines this. The cherry and wild herb notes in the mouth give way to a long finish of mineral and black tea. Superb.
