Walter Hansel Pinot Noir
The wines of Walter Hansel have been a firm favorite among drinkers for many years now; they always display sunny California fruit, but with a focus and freshness which gives them superb balance and the ability to be drunk either by themselves or with food. They are (justly) well known for providing fantastic quality for a more than reasonable price, and the Cahill Lane Pinot Noir on offer today is no exception. It is made of a blend of three clones, all planted in 1989 and so are at their peak in terms of quality, and each one giving a certain character to the wine. The final result is a wine with beautiful, bright fruit and with a certain old world character that has exceptional overall balance and is simply a joy to drink. Once again, a high-quality wine of immense gravitas has been produced by the team here, and at a very affordable price - do not miss this gem!

WA 93 (12/2019): Pale to medium ruby-purple, the 2017 Pinot Noir Cahill Lane has a broody nose of sliced blueberry, black cherry and warm blackberries with cinnamon, nutmeg, tree bark and amaro accents plus crushed red cherries, raspberry jam, warm strawberries and dried flowers. Medium-bodied and silky, it fans out in the mouth with lush, concentrated fruits and tons and tons of spicy and earthy accents, with a firm frame of grainy tannins and very juicy acidity, finishing very long and layered. 750 cases produced. |
