From the rugged slopes of Hirsch Vineyard, this is a wine known for its vibrant expression, layered complexity, and the kind of elegance that has made Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir so sought after.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it shows a bright, translucent ruby hue typical of finely made Pinot Noir. The nose is vivid and aromatic, opening with mandarin peel, wild herbs, and earthy truffle notes, alongside a subtle coastal salinity that gives the wine extra lift.\n\nThe palate is supple yet focused, balancing ripe red fruit with savory, spice-driven nuances and a long, energetic finish. The 2021 vintage brings freshness and excellent tannin maturity, suggesting strong aging potential over the next several years, with the wine likely to gain even more complexity as it develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHirsch Vineyard sits on the Sonoma Coast, above the fog line on steep, cool-climate terrain that benefits from maximum sun exposure while retaining coastal freshness. The vineyard’s varied soils, including Goldridge, Hugo, Boomer, and Yorkville, contribute to the wine’s mineral edge, aromatic lift, and layered texture. In 2021, a warm but moderate growing season and even harvest conditions allowed for slow, complete ripening, resulting in low alcohol, fresh acidity, and well-integrated tannins.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis Pinot Noir is a superb match for roasted duck, mushroom risotto, herb-crusted salmon, or game birds such as quail and pigeon. It is best served slightly cool, around 15–16°C, and while it can be enjoyed straight from the bottle, a brief decant of 20–30 minutes can help reveal its aromatic detail and savory depth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFailla Wines was founded by Ehren Jordan, a respected winemaker known for his experience across some of the world’s most celebrated wine regions.
