Plenty of oyster shells, umami, blackberries, blueberries and orange peel on the nose. Medium-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that run the length of the wine. Chewy at the end. It’s lively, tense and solid. Such elegance with power. Needs two to three years to come around. Drink after 2027.
Take it home. Or give it a cellar.

Incredibly vibrant while also offering a sense of ease and finesse. Expressive tannins play nicely with juicy fruit flavours. Bold flavours of blood orange and red berries lead, while subtle hints of eucalyptus and a touch of nutmeg-like earthy spice add depth and complexity. Lively, energetic character allows this to evolve in the glass and sparks curiosity about its potential over the next few years. Exciting and delicious.

The 2022 Pinot Noir Estate Raschen Ridge is a worthy follow-up to the magical 2021. One of the defining attributes of the world's greatest vineyards is their ability to confer a sense of place in all vintages, irrespective of climatic conditions. Raschen Ridge is one of those sites. The 2022 offers up a beguiling mix of red-toned fruit, blood orange, menthol and cinnamon, with the translucent lift and energy that are such signatures of this site. Veins of supporting tannin shape the clean, resonant finish. Raschen Ridge is, in my view, the quintessential Hirsch wine.
