Tropical exuberance meets mountain precision in this unexpectedly bold expression. Mango, papaya and candied citrus peel create generous, almost hedonistic aromatics. Wildflower honey and fresh herbs add layers to the rich, glycerous palate. More flamboyant than Hirsch's usual restraint, but the underlying structure keeps it compelling.
