Williams Selyem Pinot Noir Olivet Lane Vineyard Russian River Valley 2021 1500ml

Olivet Lane Vineyard, in the heart of the Russian River Valley, is planted with Pinot Noir vines dating to the mid-1970s, and Williams Selyem bottles it as one of its celebrated single-vineyard wines. The 2021 earned 98 points from both Wine Advocate and Jeb Dunnuck, with Wine Advocate calling it powerful and expressive with notable complexity. Matured 15 months in 61% new oak, it offers floral aromas, crushed rock, pure black cherry and wild herbs, with sweet tea leaf, wild berries and incense on a full-bodied, fresh palate. Dunnuck noted "immediate appeal" yet a future of 15 to 20 years in the cellar, a span this magnum format is well suited to deliver.
