Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Situated on the hills of Westside Road, the Estate strikes a balance between the delicacy of an Allen and the power of the Rochioli Pinot Noir. Dark cherry and plum mix with notes of anise and dried herbs. A hint of tangerine peel adds a wonderful liveliness to the rich aromatics. At the entry, the citrus notes are apparent but meld into cherry, strawberry, and notes of wood spices. The palate is very mineral driven with a strong finish of Asian tea.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
Medium ruby-purple in color, the 2015 Pinot Noir Estate Vineyard has a compelling, totally singular nose of crushed red and black cherries, rhubarb, strawberry compote and black raspberries with touches of dark chocolate, anise, black soil and dried Provence herbs plus a hint of rose hips. Medium-bodied, it has a very fine-grained, firm texture and oodles of freshness, packed with red and black berry flavors and finishing multilayered. 528 cases produced.

Williams Selyem Winery began as a simple dream of two friends, Ed Selyem and Burt Williams, who pursued weekend winemaking as a hobby in 1979 in a garage in Forestville, California, and made their first commercial vintage in 1981. In less than two decades, Burt and Ed created a cult-status winery of international acclaim. Together they set a new standard for Pinot Noir winemaking in the United States, aligning Sonoma County's Russian River Valley in the firmament of the best winegrowing regions of the world. Today John and Kathe Dyson, who purchased the winery from Burt and Ed in 1998, carry on the passion for Pinot Noir winemaking without compromise. As for the wines... they just keep getting better and better.
