#MA (799 views) | | | Tasted by vino_per_tutti on 5/11/2014 & rated 90 points: Straw color. Clean, crisp nose of stone fruit, minerality. Palate also crisp, clean and light. Good acidity.

(1743 views) | | | Tasted by gutt22 on 7/6/2013: Crisp and delicious. Light yellow color. Pretty nose of stony fruit and minerals. This is bright and laser-like in the mouth. Bursts with juicy fruit and acidity. Really just damn good on a hot day. A- (659 views) | | | Tasted by Blake Brown on 5/18/2013 & rated 89 points: new to me and I believe only available at the winery; made in a concrete cone shaped egg fermentors which creates a vortex that allow for lees to stay in suspension; clean, bright, light and nice citrus flavors with some stone fruit.

| Williams Selyem Producer websiteChenin Blanc Varietal character (Appellation America)USAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Central Coasthttp://www.ccwinegrowers.org/links.html
