  Garnet color. Riper than the '98, with plum, cherry and red fruit notes. Blaanced, with cherry, clove, black fruit and plum flavors.

  From magnum, decanted briefly off its sediment. Pale ruby color, just a little age showing. Notes of clove, spices and cherries. Medium-bodied, with flavors of cherries and red fruit and baking spices, with nice acidity. Has an elegance to it; lovely. I wish Adam still made Pinots in this style.

  14.2% alcohol. Deep red color with bricking at the rim of the glass. The color looks riper than the wine's palate indicates. Very Hirsch bouquet of black cherry, minerals, damp earth, and a hint of mushrooms. In the mouth, round yet linear, with plenty of juicy black cherry and blackberry fruit, which is bolstered by nicely layered complexity: earth, minerals, mushrooms, a touch of the floral. It's that distinct Sonoma Coast earthiness that I really like here. Good acidity. Long finish. Pretty wine. A-

  Reddish purple color; aromas of cherries, and violet floral scents; medium body with acidity perfectly balanced by the complex candied red berry fruit flavors; nice finish; this wine is aging beautifully and shows no signs of peaking.

  Bricky ruby in color suggesting a little age but this wine is still youthful. A complex nose of raspberry, red cherry, pine needle and campfire. Silky mouthfeel with bright cherry fruit and an earthy edge. Tannins are resolved and there is a goodly amount of remaining acid on the finish. Very nice but I wish it had a little more complexity on the palate.
