{"product_id":"hirsch-estate-chardonnay-2023","title":"Hirsch Estate Chardonnay 2023","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Estate Chardonnay is the only white wine produced at Hirsch. With less than four acres of Chardonnay vines, production is highly limited. Vine age, dramatic soils, and our extreme maritime climate combine to create a wine of dazzling acidity, silky texture and pronounced minerality.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe first Chardonnay vineyard was planted in 1994. That year, David Hirsch prepared 2.5 acres for planting on a rocky, 40% slope above his house. He was enamored with Barolo and intended to plant Nebbiolo. Burt Williams, who was buying our Pinot Noir grapes for his winery Williams Selyem, told David he was nuts and should plant Chardonnay instead. Thus, the old Chardonnay vineyard was born. The cuttings came from Joe Rochioli; Williams Selyem made the wine from 1997 to 2000; Kistler took the fruit through 2005. In 2002 David planted an additional 1.4 acres of Chardonnay on a sandstone hill in field 12, just over the hill from the old vineyard. Together these two tiny vineyards comprise our estate Chardonnay, first produced in 2006.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hirsch Vineyards","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46587637039352,"sku":"14727","price":229.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0697\/2712\/5752\/files\/HirschEstateChardonnay2023.png?v=1765412989","url":"https:\/\/checkout.reservecellar.com.au\/products\/hirsch-estate-chardonnay-2023","provider":"Reserve Cellar","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
