2012 WALTER HANSEL "CAHILL LANE" PINOT NOIR Winery Notes, "From Rochioli, Dijon 115 and Dijon 114 clones. A burst of sweet red cherries, plums, orange peel, smoke, game and tobacco hit the palate in this classic Russian River Pinot. Sweet floral and spice notes add lift to the finsih. 957 cases produced." From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, "The 2012 Pinot Noir Cahill Lane is made from the Rochioli, Dijon 115 and Dijon 114 clones. There is a lot of clay in these soils. This dark ruby/plum-colored wine reveals a sweet kiss of Asian spice intermixed with black raspberry, black cherry and floral notes. Medium to full-bodied and rich with remarkable length and intensity, this stunning Pinot should drink well for a decade or more." 93-95 Points
