Williams Selyem Olivet Lane Pinot Noir 2018

Black cherry and musky herbs dominate the nose of this wine which comes from an old-vine Pinot Noir planting. A bouquet of violets softens the edges of the aromatics, while savory elements of anise and celery seed add another level of complexity to this dynamic wine. Enticing and comforting aromas of sweet cherry and fresh baked pie crust further add interest to the nose. The flavors are equally as exciting with notes of dark cherry and plum, and zesty acidity. Polished and seamless, the black tea-like tannins are wrapped up in a sappiness that exudes power and elegance at the same time. A streak of minerals in the middle palate gives way to a black cherry pit sensation on the finish.
