Winemaker Notes

Another lovely bottling from our Sessions vineyard block, planted in 1999, the nose shows loads of wild blueberry, dark cherry, wildflowers, raspberry, boysenberry, blood orange and bergamot. Complex and beguiling on the palate, flavors of red cherry, pomegranate, pink grapefruit, granite and redwood forest floor compel another taste. Long and complex on the finish, this Pinot Noir will surely be a favorite whether enjoyed now or after years of cellaring.

About Winery

Ambassador James D. Zellerbach founded Hanzell Vineyards in 1953 with a vision to create wines that could compete on the world stage.  Named after his wife Hana, Hanzell sits at the southern toe of the Mayacamas mountain range overlooking the south-western end of Sonoma Valley and San Pablo Bay.  After extensive time spent in Burgundy, Zellerbach returned inspired and educated by the region’s wines and grapes—Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.  He then planted these two varieties at a time when there were less than a few hundred acres of each planted in North America.  Since 1975, Hanzell has been solely owned by the de Brye family, who is dedicated to the preservation of tradition with a progressive and holistic approach which will ensure the sustainability for generations to come.

Aromas of fresh Bing cherry and crushed raspberry dominate the nose of this fresh and lively Pinot. The palate displays an earthier edge, with flavors of dried cranberry, shiitake and black tea shining in a medium-bodied framework of rich tannin. Give this a few years in the cellar to soften and it will be lovely with roasted pork loin.
