Sonoma Valley Pinot Noir

2010 drinking great but still has lots of life ahead.

10' Hanzell Pinot Noir. Cranberries, plum -skins, A touch of cherry/spices. Medium bodied & quite elegant. Just entering it's prime drinking years. This will age gracefully for another 10+ years.

I am thrilled that I held onto this Pinot Noir. It's delicate, graceful, like a ballerina. Soft flavors, hardly a bouquet at all. What is there is a bit cranberry, and macerated cherries. Lovely.

California classic! #IPOB

Drink now or for the next 25 years. Classic Hanzell.

Dinner with Craig and Sara at Dry Creek Kitchen in Sonoma

This was not a table favorite but I loved it. I loved the acidity and modest fruit profile. Worthy of IPOB.

Young, going to age beautifully

Had at kc American bistro with pat October 2014 liked but didn't love enough to cellar

Tom had this 7 years ago
