2006 Williams Selyem Pinot Noir Russian River Valley


SHOP now


Each of us, in our way, wishes to drink more interesting wines at more attractive prices.  And this 2006 Russian River Pinot Noir, opened several times at Café Vivant over the past month, fuses interesting/attractive more persuasively than perhaps any wine in its category. 

There’s a good helping of the cellar-sweetened cherries one expects but a much larger width of earthy, spicy complexity.  By the second glass it's cinnamon and cloves, white pepper and cardamom that assert strongest, with ripe Pinot fruit supporting rather than dominating the growing complexity. 

About as far as $70 carries us.


Cheers,

Jason
