I was gifted a bottle, and was delighted having never tasted a Hirsch Vineyard Pinot. I can't say I was knocked out, and I will try other Hirsch to make a good judgement. The Siduri does seem to be past its prime. Although the acid is by and large gone, and the wine did have a smooth mellowness to it, what should have been bright fruit had turned darker, somewhat flat. Not bad, but not great. Severe cork deterioration must have contributed to it.

Still drinking well, but not as structured as I expect from a Hirsch. Maybe it's time to drink it up before it starts to go downhill.
