Williams Selyem – Pinot Noir – 2023
Savoy Vineyard – Anderson Valley – USA 🇺🇸
Overview
An expressive, cool-climate Pinot Noir sourced from the renowned Savoy Vineyard in Anderson Valley. Further north than the Russian River Valley and closer to the Pacific’s cooling influence, this site produces Pinot with lifted aromatics, savory undertones, and remarkable structure. Williams Selyem preserves all of this with their signature finesse and precision.
Aromas & Flavors
Red cherry, cranberry, and pomegranate alongside notes of forest floor, dried herbs, and subtle rose petal. Hints of green tea, spice, and earthiness emerge with air, true to Anderson Valley’s highly expressive style.
Mouthfeel
Medium-bodied with bright acidity and fine, graceful tannins. The palate is layered, vibrant, and slightly savory, finishing long with freshness and quiet complexity.
Food Pairings
Roast duck, mushroom-stuffed chicken, herb-crusted salmon, lentil dishes, or aged goat cheese.
Verdict
A beautifully expressive Pinot Noir that showcases Anderson Valley’s cool-climate character, vegetal, aromatic, and deeply layered. Yet through it all, Williams Selyem’s finesse, purity, and elevated precision remain unmistakable. Cheers!
