White

The Hilt estate sites sit in the southwestern corner of the Santa Rita Hills. This is a blend of the three different sites – the ridgetop Bentrock and Radian vineyards, and the Puerta del Mar – which combine various soils, elevations and mesoclimates. The wine is matured in a combination of French oak (34% new) and stainless steel. Ronan Sayburn MS: Floral and elegant with wonderful energy and focus. Long, taut and elegant. Mouthwatering while still rich and smoky. Eugenio Egorov: Fresh notes of orchard fruits and citrus blossom. Superb persistence, a touch of salinity, well-integrated oak and light butter at the end. Ben Gubbins: Plentiful attack but thins out a bit too soon. Good complexity and fruit character, though. Citrus, apple, oak, pithy texture.
