Heat damage shows clearly here. Baked fruit and roasted notes overwhelm what should be Hirsch's signature elegance and mineral drive. The palate feels compressed, lacking the site's usual depth and vibrancy. Drink now.

Littorai is Ted Lemon's Sonoma Coast project, built around single-vineyard Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from cool, windswept sites farmed organically and biodynamically. The wines are detailed, restrained, and among California's most Burgundian in spirit.
