Second older Williams Selyem I've had first was an Allen Vineyard? Nice red color just very slight if at all bricking. Pnp from cellar and noticed just a little sediment clouding it. Fruit was nice cherry and raspberry though a little faded. Not lot of experience on these older Oregon's though. I have a few more and would say start drinking up.

Clear/bright, dark ruby, color to edge, no hint of brick at edge as with the bottle sampled at the winery in October. Cherry and floral aroma, light oak/vanilla bouquet Medium body, velvet texture, smooth tannins, cherry, violet, red raspberry flavors. Elegant and well-balanced. Thoroughly enjoyable and special. Ready now and for the next few years.

Still life left in this wine, but no reason to wait any more; really balanced, soft pinot flavors; light red color; cola and cherry flavor profile; perfect finish; I think you need to adjust expectations for this wine as it is going to be a more mellow than many of today's Cali pinots, but that is not a bad thing

I liked the balance of fruit and earth and acid. Elegant, light bodied, but smooth.
