The Hilt Old Guard Pinot Noir 2015 is a vineyard-specific wine from the Santa Rita Hills AVA in California. The 2015 vintage reveals an earthy profile with elements of underbrush, herbs and subtle floral hints, layered beneath darker fruit such as black cherry and currant. It is structured and offers a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, supported by ripe tannins. Best enjoyed after several years of cellaring, this wine demands patience for optimal expression.

The Hilt's 2015 Pinot Noir Old Guard is a big, powerful wine that won't be ready to drink for at least a few years. Ample and dramatic in build, the 2015 exudes richness. A host of red-toned fruit, sage, mint and rose petal notes get an extra kick of aromatic lift from the whole clusters. The 2015 finishes with great focus and intensity especially for the year. This is a remarkable wine in every way. The 2015 is mostly Sanford & Benedict, with some fruit from Radian.Antonio Galloni1st September 2017

Pale to medium ruby-purple in color, the 2015 Pinot Noir Old Guard has pronounced black cherries, black raspberries and anise on the nose, with a stems-inspired, herbal undercurrent, lending plenty of spice box and savory notions. Medium-bodied and led by a structure of chewy tannins and lively acidity, it has a great core of earthy/savory layers and finishes on a peppery note. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
