The Hilt

Estate Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2019

Lots and lots of cherry in this California-style Pinot Noir. Earthy and complex. Lovely and intense nose. A beautiful wine that went perfectly with mushroom risotto. Paradigmatic of New World Pinot Noir. — a month ago

The Paring

Red Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2019

Delectable Wine
9.0

The Paring’s 2019 Red is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend from the team at Jonata and The Hilt. It soars from the glass with wild flowers, herbs, blood orange and red-fleshed fruit. Elegant and nuanced, the Red is also a tremendous value. $20.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2022) — 2 years ago

Château Latour

Les Forts de Latour Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1979

1979 vintage. Above average fill with a fully saturated cork. Used a Durand but corkscrew segment wouldn't insert to the hilt. Cork kept spinning. Got 3/4's the way in before deploying the ah-so segment. Able to remove the cork in two acts. Decanted with gigantic sed. Super lean but with staying power. LFDL consistently rates as one of the best (if not THE best) 2nd label in BDX. 1979 wasn't the best vintage but the pedigree is unimpeachable and this carries along a zippy, spice box component. Should have another 5-6 years at this level. 7.6.24. — 4 months ago

I really should start with the Durand on any old bottle but for some reason forget and use it to salvage

@Norman Gennaro I use it on pretty much any bottle over a decade old. Safe > sorry.

The Vanguard Pinot Noir 2015

2015 vintage. Playful raspberry/rhubarb nose. Medium-medium heavy body. Big thrust in the frontal palate that fanned out mid-palate and pleasantly carried through to a long finish. This was firing. 6.28.24. — 4 months ago

Radian Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

Lovely silky texture, seamless fruit and not even a hint of a hard edge. Maybe missing a little Je ne sais quoi? I feel like I should have loved it more. — 3 years ago
