Pleasantly floral and slightly herbal, the 2021 Soave II Selene opens with green apple, candied lime and sweet sage aromas. Soft and supple, with crisp acids, the Selese finishes long and full of tension, leaving traces of Granny Smith apple and a salty minerality. $13.00 (Eric Guido, Vinous, April 2023) — 2 years ago

Sylvere Trichard is the face of Selene, his tiny winery spanning four little hectares. The Rose’ of all Gamay is big and herbaceous.

A shaker of muddled basil, thyme, bright ruby strawberry, and watermelon. — 4 years ago

Ever heard the saying they don't make it like they used too. Well it's true with only a handful of California wines that recap poured the hype of Parker but clearly that turned out to be for our benefit. This wine was not Sunni Jung but out dud not did disappoint either. More Bordeaux like that fruity this had classic cedar noted with leathery almost plum like fruit with a good mid palate. Remarkable wines like Selene Forman Scherrer and laurel Glen are too overlooked and I for one am a fan and advocate. Blind I fool most of the people who buy Parker wines. These products make things with soul. — 9 years ago

Delicious! This is by far the best Romanian wine we’ve tried so far. Let it open up and see how the flavors and aromas change. Great wine! — 3 years ago

This wine rocked. It might be past peak but this over delivered in terms of drink ability and balance. Wonderful fruit and stunning aromatics just offer a glimpse of one of the best two merlotsbin California but I might be a bit biased. Made by a legend and enjoyed by a law abiding citizen.....i want more. — 9 years ago
