Williams Selyem
Sonoma County Pinot Noir
Sonoma County, California, USA
Simply great with this age for $45.
2008 was a Sonoma fire year and while this has some smokiness it does seems that it’s from smoke taint.
Ruby, dark, slightly, sour cherries, blackberries, black plum pudding, black raspberries, dry cranberries, blueberry hue’s, touch of baked rhubarb, moist clay with grey volcanics, alluvial limestone, dry rock powder, red licorice/cola, steeped tea, some dry herbs, lightly grilled meats, dark spice w/ a touch of heat, cinnamon, clove, nutmeg, vanillin, dry twigs, fall leaves, withering; dark, red, blue florals framed in violets with hints of lavender, summer rainfall acidity with a lush, elegant, well balanced, mid tensioned/structured, two- minute finish, that falls on earthiness.

In my cellar since release. Holding up with the age of it. A bit of smokiness but doesn’t seem like a bad thing. A bit of dark fruit coming through too.

Enjoyed this Pinot tonight with friends. Nice flavor and smooth. Worked well with the tri tip, orzo parmesan and spinach salad we had.
