Hillrock Pinot Noir Solera Bourbon
Hillrock PN (Pinot Noir) Solera Aged Bourbon is from Hillrock Estate Distillery in the Hudson Valley, New York — a true field-to-glass craft producer using the historic Solera fractional-aging method (rare in American whiskey) and finishing the bourbon in Pinot Noir wine casks for added red-fruit and oak complexity.
Hillrock Estate Distillery is one of the few American whiskey producers using estate-grown grain, an on-site malt house, and traditional Solera aging — a system more typical of Spanish sherry and Madeira than American bourbon. The PN expression applies a Pinot Noir cask finish to the Solera-aged base for a distinct red-fruit signature.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Solera aging?
A fractional-aging system, more typical of Spanish sherry and Madeira than American bourbon, in which older and younger whiskey are continuously blended rather than aged as discrete batches — building a layered, consistent profile over time.
What does the Pinot Noir cask finish add?
After Solera aging, the bourbon rests in Pinot Noir wine casks, which contribute red-fruit notes and a softer, wine-influenced layer of oak on top of the underlying bourbon character.
Where is Hillrock made?
At Hillrock Estate Distillery in Ancram, in New York's Hudson Valley — a field-to-glass operation that grows grain on its own estate and malts on-site.
