    March 21, 2023 - Sweetness, fruit, balance, and a firm, authoritative acidity on the finish - everything I like about Wiliams Selyem. Drinking very well - I won’t say at peak because I don’t have enough experience with very old Willie.

    October 20, 2021 - deep dark cherry, spice, rich mouthfeel, long finish, still has time to evelop

    April 4, 2021 - From winery at release, consumed in mid-60s. Relatively youthful medium ruby, fades to a watery rim. Leggy. Plenty of nose: high-toned, gentle, ripe cherry, floral, fairly youthful. Palate of ripe red fruits, RC cola, medium+ body, medium+ acidity, still slightly sappy. 13.7%. Non-zero residual sugar?

    Long finish echoes sweet cherry and RS. Reminiscent of a five-year good-level village Burgundy. Nice, worthwhile, aging slower than expected, but not profound or complex, even with Coltrane playing in the background.

    February 21, 2021 - This is the best WS Pinot for my taste that I have had in a long time. So balanced, with spicy fruit and earthy minerality. I have continued to buy the unoaked Chardonnay in more recent vintages, but am going to get back on the Pinot train for new releases of this wine.
