Rhys Horseshoe Hillside Pinot Noir 2019 is a red wine from the Santa Cruz Mountains in California. The estate vineyard is situated on a steep ridge with rocky soils of shale and sandstone, which promote a firm structural profile. Winemaking involves whole-cluster fermentation and ageing in French oak to highlight a savoury, forest-floor character. This bottling offers a profile of wild strawberry and crushed herbs, balanced by a fine-grained tannic structure. It reflects the cool-climate tension found in high-altitude Californian viticulture.

The 2019 Pinot Noir Horseshoe Hillside takes all of the structure of this site and fills out the layers with striking fruit. An absolute stunner, the Hillside has so much of everything. Dark red/purplish fruit, rose petal, spice, blood orange and mint are some of the many notes that build in the glass. High-density blocks on the upper rim of Horseshoe vineyard form the core of the Hillside bottling.Antonio Galloni31st May 2022
