Tasting Notes

WE95

Woody, herbal and resplendent in forest-floor pine and sandalwood, this is a complex, earthy and medium-bodied wine. It's low in oak, and revelatory in cool-climate seductions of pomegranate, cranberry and rhubarb compote. The finish is all black tea, with still-developing tannin structure and power.

CG90

The differences among the many Williams Selyem Pinots are at times tiny and, at others, fairly acute, and, while this wine is in step with its Russian River mates, it lacks the finesse of the best. It is both solid and stiff with a turn of tartness to its ample, cherry-like fruit and it finds an extra bit of firmness and finishing grip at this point that makes a few years of holding the preferred course.
