Tasting notes
FINE+RARE, Apr 2023

The Hilt’s Estate Pinot Noir has a wonderful concoction of complimentery aromas and flavours from candy-sweet cherry notes, fresh strawberry and more sanguine blood orange. There is even a more northern Rhône-esque dark, peppery note to the wine. The tannins are silky yet nicely textural and there is a good balancing freshness.

Lovely floral aromas of lavender and rose petal with ripe yet fresh strawberries. Crushed stone. Medium-bodied with very fine tannins and bright acidity. Subtle mineral and salt notes with gorgeous fruits. But always reserved. Slate. Super value, such quality. Drink or hold.

Moving to the reds, the 2020 Pinot Noir Estate has lots of black raspberry and strawberry-like fruits as well as toasted spices and floral notes. It’s medium-bodied, textured, has some background, nicely integrated oak, and beautiful tannins. Drink this gem over the coming 4-6 years.
