Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2005 Zinfandel Feeney Vineyard possesses a deep ruby color in addition to sweet, gamy, briery, peppery notes. With outstanding richness, surprising power for the vintage, and a lush finish, it can be drunk over the next 4-5 years.

Wine Enthusiast
Big, raw and frankly not really showing its best now, this young Zin needs time in the bottle. It has everything that it takes for two or three years aging, at least. Aromas and flavors of crushed pepper, fennel seed and cardamom spice up the blackberry, roasted coffee and bitter chocolate flavors, while the tannins are hefty, but negotiable.
-
Wine Spectator
This is supple, balanced and juicy, showing raspberry, boysenberry, pepper and toasty licorice notes, with an appealing balance between the bright acidity and ripe tannins. Who says Zinfandel can't be elegant?

Williams Selyem Winery began as a simple dream of two friends, Ed Selyem and Burt Williams, who pursued weekend winemaking as a hobby in 1979 in a garage in Forestville, California, and made their first commercial vintage in 1981. In less than two decades, Burt and Ed created a cult-status winery of international acclaim. Together they set a new standard for Pinot Noir winemaking in the United States, aligning Sonoma County's Russian River Valley in the firmament of the best winegrowing regions of the world. Today John and Kathe Dyson, who purchased the winery from Burt and Ed in 1998, carry on the passion for Pinot Noir winemaking without compromise. As for the wines... they just keep getting better and better.
