Winemaker Notes
A new single-vineyard designate that, since 2008, had been blended into the Eastside Road Neighbors. Aromas of black raspberry, violets, cherry cola and clove come through on the nose. A very textural wine with brooding tannins that coat your palate with notes of raspberry cobbler, sassafras, herbal spices and minerals. The great balance and juicy acidity come from three main clones: Pommard, Swan and Mt. Eden. The complexity of this wine will continue to show through as these vines become more and more mature. I plan to cellar this wine for 4-6 years before I start drinking with friends.

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.
