The 2023 Old Hill Heritage Wine soars from the glass with lifted aromatics. Bright red-toned fruit, spice, mint, blood orange, cinnamon, cedar and new leather are all beautifully sculpted in this nuanced, captivating red blend. This field blend of more than varieties is SO aromatically intense. Painstakingly tended to by the Bucklin family, Old Hill is quite simply one of the most pedigreed vineyard sites in the United States. What a gorgeous wine this is.
Of all the New World wine countries, perhaps the one which has demonstrated the most flair for producing high quality wines - using a combination of traditional and forward-thinking contemporary methods - has been the United States of America. For the past couple of centuries, the United States has set about transforming much of its suitable land into vast vineyards, capable of supporting a wide variety of world-class grape varietals which thrive on both the Atlantic and the Pacific coastlines. Of course, we immediately think of sun-drenched California in regards to American wines, with its enormous vineyards responsible for the New World's finest examples of Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot based wines, but many other states have taken to viticulture in a big way, with impressive results. Oregon, Washington State and New York have all developed sophisticated and technologically advanced wine cultures of their own, and the output of U.S wineries is increasing each year as more and more people are converted to their produce.
Region
California
California as a wine producing region has grown in size and importance considerably over the past couple of centuries, and today is the proud producer of more than ninety percent of the United States' wines. Indeed, if California was a country, it would be the fourth largest producer of wine in the world, with a vast range of vineyards covering almost half a million acres. The secret to California's success as a wine region has a lot to do with the high quality of its soils, and the fact that it has an extensive Pacific coastline which perfectly tempers the blazing sunshine it experiences all year round. The winds coming off the ocean cool the vines, and the natural valleys and mountainsides which make up most of the state's wine regions make for ideal areas in which to cultivate a variety of high quality grapes.
Appellation
Sonoma Valley
California's beautiful and remarkably fertile Sonoma Valley has grown over the decades to become one of the United States' most respected and profitable wine regions, with wineries within the region benefiting from the superb Californian sunshine, low rainfall and wonderfully rich soils. Because of this vital combination of excellent conditions, the region is able to grow a wide range of grape varietals for use in the production of an impressive array of wines, with many different red and white wine grapes flourishing each year and producing excellent and characterful results. The soils have been enriched by volcanic activity, and the presence of geothermal springs, which make this region a unique one, and very much the beating heart of California's ever growing wine industry.

Wow, an old-vine field blend that’s so rich, concentrated and luxurious in texture. Delicious blackberries, boysenberries, blueberries and raspberries on a broad, melted texture. Light tannins and balancing acidity buoy the generous, mouth-coating fruit flavors that expand on the palate and linger in the finish. Full-bodied. Drink now or hold.

Wine Advocate
The 2023 Old Hill Ranch Heritage comes from vines planted to more than 30 grape varieties in the mid-1880s and farmed organically since the 1950s. Grapes were harvested on October sixth, and the blend is dominated by Zinfandel. The nose is bursting with aromas of chocolate-covered cherries, aniseed, thyme and floral perfume. The medium-bodied palate is delicately styled, its nuanced flavors framed by soft, chalky tannins and mouthwatering acidity, and it has a long, layered finish.

Wine Spectator
A vigorously structured version, with a deep core of bright acidity and briary tannins, this red overflows with personality, offering blackberry, currant, bitter chocolate, clove and other dark spices. Builds tension toward the firm finish. Zinfandel, Grenache, Mataro, Syrah, Petit Sirah and Alicante. Best from 2026 through 2036.
