The 2003 Pinot Noir Estate (754 cases) is produced from Dijon clones 777 and 667. A gamey Pinot revealing sweet blue and red fruits, a tasty mid-section, medium body, and noticeable elegance, it should drink well for 3-4 years. One of northern California’s “good guys” is undeniably Stephen Hansel, who fashions top-quality Burgundian-styled Chardonnays and Pinot Noirs. Tom Rochioli first brought these wines to my attention, and Hansel is now one of my reference point visits in the North Coast. Known locally as a major car dealer, Hansel founded the winery in 1978 and now owns over 80 acres under vine. These are all noteworthy cuvees that remain somewhat under the radar. Moreover, prices remain unbelievably fair for wines of such quality. Tel. (707) 525-3614; Fax (707) 528-1310
