Williams Selyem
Bucher Vineyard Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
The best of the Russian River! Round, juicy red fruit attack. Mid palate drifts into blueberry, thyme, allspice. Lingering vanilla seed.

Just enough V/A to have to dump it. What a shame to have to do with a 10 year in bottle Williams Selyem. Ouch! 😣

Spectacular wine! First pour was fruity and tart acting like a newly bottled Pinot. Amazing for a 14 year old bottle. But with a bit of air it transformed into a luscious full bodied smooth treat with a lovely bouquet of fruit and ripe earth. The finish just kept going. Enjoyed with a hunk of prime rib.

Open. Maybe little over hill color still very bright light purple edge. Strawberry candy floral-violets? but cold earth and wood coming through mouth may open up but lacking any flavor or structure
