Hirsch Vineyards Hirsch Estate Chardonnay 2020 Review
Within seconds of smelling this wine you will be enamored by it. It’s so wonderful and full with heady fruit and a refreshing perception of minerals or river rocks channeling through. It’s a wine that fills your senses and holds tight. Sipping the calm balance with mild natural acidity holding everything in place, you may marvel at the depth that has been achieved here. The wine hits on all levels. The balance is impeccable. It’s hard to put into words. You have to experience it yourself. A damn good wine and excellent American Chardonnay.
