Walter Hansel Pinot Noir North Slope 2016
Is there a winery that overdelivers more than Hansel? We think not!! The NEW North Slope is here, not to mention the awesome 94+ Cuvee Alyce Chardonnay --- these are no-brainer buys in a full-on style that tastes like something 2-3 times the price. How do they do it??
Just a few of the critics words on the pinot: ”...polished, succulent and refined...offers bags of rich berry flavors in the mouth with a sexy, plush texture and scintillating freshness...pliant and supple, like all these wines are, but with notable finesse…” We go through a case a year at least at our house, because these wine are such massive crowd-pleasers --- EVERYONE can get into them. So lush, so complex and satisfying!
While they last…!
