2004 Hansel North Coast Pinot Noir
Hype, hype, hype. Everyone I know loves this wine, but the alcohol
level on this wine obscures everything else right now. Will it mature,
sure, but into what? When first opened, there was lots of raspberry
fruit with substanial tannin. Upon further review, the alcohol seemed
to be the primary factor. Does this resolve itself? The oddest thing
about this wine is that it didn't get better with time, it got worse.
Perhaps it's in a dumb stage right now, but right now, it's not all that
friendly.
