Winemaker Notes

The 2012 vintage was spectacular for growing Zinfandel in the Russian River Valley and this brooding wine is a wonderful example. Expansive aromas of wild raspberries, blackberry jam, fresh peppercorns and sassafras fill the glass. Ripe, wild berry flavors along with exotic spices, espresso, fresh figs and toasty oak are interrupted by expansive tannins and juicy mouthwatering acidity. The vineyard was planted in 1934 by Carlo Papera and is over 95% Zinfandel, but our section includes some Carignane, Syrah, Alicante, Valdiguie and Petite Sirah. A truly remarkable Zinfandel that is enjoyable now or can be cellared for several more years.

Williams Selyem Winery , California
Williams Selyem Winery  Proprietors John and Kathe Dyson Winery Image

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.
