Perched on a ridge overlooking the Pacific at Fort Ross, Sonoma County,
Hirsch Vineyards is the birth ground of great pinot noir on the Sonoma
coast. David Hirsch founded the vineyard on the extreme Sonoma Coast to grow
fruit and make site-specific wine. The pinot noir and chardonnay wines from
Hirsch Winery give the passionate drinker an experience of the clash of
opposites meeting in Nature and Life: the edge of the continent washed by
the sea; the eviternal grinding of the North American and Pacific plates
along the San Andreas Fault; the wet winters and dry summers caused by the
ocean and desert climates; the dripping rainforest and parched pastures; the
contact and intermingling of cultures: Native American, Mexican, Russian,
European; the change in rural economy from logging and ranching to
winegrowing.
In the grapes and wines of Hirsch Vineyards and Winery you find a natural
balance and consistency in the harmonious resolution of these opposites.
Enjoy perfection from the edge.
