Considered white Burgundy or Etna Bianco.
Called Canary Islands. Salty and reductive.
Lots of acid. Should’ve considered Willamette as this reminds me of Morgen Long wines. Good vintage for most of the west coast. — 9 days ago

If I was tasting blind, I would’ve said RRV Pinot. Aromas of cola,red fruit and cloves. Those aromas transferred to my palate where they were met by a healthy dose of acid. An extended finish. Despite a reasonable 13.5% alcohol, at about 3 hours it stared to make its presence known. — 3 months ago

Young entry level wine from this producer. Took an hour to open up. Nice depth a slightly reductive characteristics, in a good way. Will add depth over time — 4 months ago

2023 vintage. Curious as to how Grand Cru Bâtard-Montrachet (starts in the $400's a btl) tastes, this is an excellent place to start. This effort clocks in at under $100 a btl. 04.23.25. — 5 days ago

9.0

Bell pepper, chilli pepper, tamarind, red fruit… cherry, raspberry, cedar, vanilla, dill (but tech spec says aged in used French oak). On the palate, unripe blackberry and seeds. No noticeable cream on the palate (effect of melo gone?) — a month ago

Walter Hansel remains a favorite Pinot Noir for me. Big on fruit and peppery with a hint of fennel. This Winery never disappoints. Sipping 2018 . — 4 months ago
