Still purple around the edges. Savory and spicy. — 10 months ago
Here we open things up a bit more vs the west Sonoma coast bottling. Same pale yellow but citrus is fresher, white florals more vibrant, some underlying tension below the mellow lemon curd profile — 19 days ago
Williams Selyem with this kind of age never disappoints, nor does the 2012 Napa/Sonoma vintage.
Mid & darker fruits & mid berry cola burst out of glass. Limestone minerals, crushed rock, steeped tea and bright, fresh red florals.
It glides on the palate with ripe, juicy fruits that are; dark cherries, strawberries, blackberries, black raspberries, pomegranate, dry cranberries, blueberries & some boysenberries. Red cola/licorice, dark spice, cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, vanillin, dark rich soil, dry twig, crushed limestone, dry top soil, saline, fresh, bright, dark, red forals with violets, excellent rainfall acidity with an elegant, balanced finish that falls on dry minerals and that lasts two-minutes.
Quality consistent yr in yr out. Their style is my Pinot wheelhouse. Now owned by Domaine Faiveley.

Part of a vertical tasting from 07-21. This was in a great place. Acidity is holding these aged wines together nicely. — 9 months ago
Fresh cherries and strawberries, orange peel, vanilla, and licorice. Also background notes of plum, pine, and earth . Right now, scoring this as it is drinking, but with age (it needs some mellowing, but certainly not decades) it could move up a few points. — a month ago
Leanish for syrah hut great structure and intensity. — 6 months ago

Opens with pleasant white flower reduction minor struck match and a touch of oaky vanilla. Then lemon confit and other soft candied notes. Would be an overly opulent profile but it’s well balanced by solid yet mellow acidity. Primary profile could fool me for Chassagne but without laser or hazelnut — 19 days ago
