Infanticide, but whatever. I love WS. And I won't touch the next bottle in this case for at least 5 years (ok maybe 2) 😍

Even better than the last time I uncorked a 2013 Calegari Vineyard, Sonoma County Williems Selyem. Smooth, rich, ripe cherry, dried cranberry with a hint of a chocolate note. The beautiful, rich color with medium++ viscosity, velvety smooth. Scrumptious with a Spanish-Basque inspired meal of lamb and cheeses. Will greatly look forward to my next bottle.

This an elegant offering. Clarity and precision is all I can come up with. RRV Pinot as it should be

What a stunner, rich and silky without too much oak, the fruit was dark and concentrated without being jammy, it stood out in a nice lineup. Great with our miso black cod. If you have them drink them.

It's tasting very well now. One of the better year.

Delicate for a Russian River Pinot Noir. Tart Bing cherries. Could use more time.

Fall allocations are here! This one I couldn't stand to wait a moment longer to open. Not being on the list yet #williamsselyem graciously extended openings this fall to those of us waiting. This bottle is immediately met with silky berries wrapped with a most elegant finish. #inlove #willtrytoputremainderincellar #pinotnoir #russianrivervalley
