2006 Williams Selyem Weir Vineyard Pinot Noir 
It began in the late 1970s, initially as a garage project by Ed Selyem and Burt Williams in Forestville, a community in Sonoma County. In 1981 the pair – who were neighbors – officially named their project Hacienda Del Rio and established it as a legal winery. Two years later, the release of their first commeSOTTrcial vintage (1981) coincided with a cease-and-desist order from Hacienda Winery, leading them to change their name to Williams Selyem.

Williams Selyem found its success buying and bottling single-vineyard wines, with Pinot Noir as the focus. Single-vineyard wines were not new to California, but the first for Williams Selyem was its 1985 Rochioli Vineyard Pinot Noir.

While Pinot Noir dominates production, Williams Selyem also makes a small amount of Chardonnay, Zinfandel, and a Port-style fortified dessert wine. These offerings vary in production from year to year but many also carry single-vineyard designations.

    Robert Parker Rating From the Yorkville Highlands, the Pinot Noir Weir Vineyard always comes across as relatively earthy and rustic, and the 2006 is a tough-textured, angular wine that takes some introspection to fully understand. There is elegance, and notes of dusty red cherries, but it is a tough customer.
    Antonio Galloni Rating 93 AG - Bright red. Intensely mineral nose offers a sexy bouquet of fresh red berries, incense and cinnamon. Light in body but deeply flavored, with spicy strawberry and raspberry flavors and a strong undertone of graphite. This doesn't want to let go of the palate, eventually leaving traces of red berry preserves and baking spices in its wake. Very sharply focused pinot noir.
    Wine Spectator Rating Intense and smoky, very charry and drying, with a roasted coffee edge to the earthy currant and berry flavors.
