February 10, 2023 - Bright ruby red, muted dark berry nose, medium-bodied. Disappointingly dull; fruit had subsided, and not nearly as interesting as prior tastings would suggest. I don’t consider Hirsch to be “party wine” but rather more special and interesting, and this bottle was “meh” — if I had been served this at a large social gathering it would have been okay, but not what we expected.😔
