Textbook Russian River Pinot with haunting complexity and ethereal finesse.

Bing cherry leads with black tea undertones. Sarsaparilla adds distinctive spice layer. Earth emerges mid-palate - forest floor, wet leaves. Silky tannins frame concentrated fruit without heaviness. Finish lingers with mineral precision. 2010 vintage brings ideal ripeness without overextraction. Drinking beautifully now but structured for another decade. Classic Williams Selyem elegance meets Russian River power.
