Hanzell Vineyards
Sebella Sonoma County Chardonnay
Lotta fruit on the nose; suspect adding fruit from other vineyards, reducing oak regime and cutting cost of wine. A good wine, but not as good as previous vintages. More about fruit than nuance.

Jan 30th, 2016Nose is slight with hints of cream, green melon, and wet stones. On the palate you notice first the big acid and then the Chard fruit comes through. Very persistent, mouthwatering finish. Excellent CA Chard.

Aug 6th, 2015Really, really nice. Enjoyed the purity and clarity of the fruit and minerality. This was beautiful and is one of the better Chardonnays I've had in awhile. #sousbeurresf #hanzell #sonomavalley

May 14th, 2015Haven't had this wine in a long time, forgot how good it is. Granny apples on the nose, pure crystalline acidity with subtle palate weight from the oak and lees. Perfect Chardonnay.
