Pale to medium ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir Cahill Lane gives up a beautifully earthy nose of truffles, black soil and mossy bark with a core of warm cherries, black raspberries and red plums. Medium to full-bodied, it coats the palate with red berries and plum-inspired layers, framed by fine-grained tannins and great freshness, finishing long and earthy. 784 cases produced.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
How...do...they...do...it? I mean, Hansel’s been making these high-scoring, uber-delicious wines for 20+ years and have barely ever even raised their prices! Truly astonishing. These single-vineyard new releases are tremendous, no-brainer buys! Hansel just keeps pumping out the fantastic juice -- they’ve got to be one of the most bang-for-buck producers in Sonoma by far…!
The pinot is ripe, silky and super-generous, just brimming with red fruits and forest floor -- Wine Advocate said: "...gives up a beautifully earthy nose of truffles, black soil and mossy bark with a core of warm cherries, black raspberries and red plums.

About the Producer
"My father, Walter, loved to grow everything from kiwi to oriental pears and more. In the 1970's he enlisted my help to plant 257 chardonnay vines. Throughout the 1980's our entire family would harvest the half acre of grapes and my father and I would make the wine; filling two barrels, which equaled 50 cases of wine. Since our first commercial vintage in 1996, I have learned with every harvest that you must listen to vine; react to Mother Nature and ALWAYS compromise quantity for quality." - Steven Hansel
