WILLIAMS SELYEM   WILLIAMS SELYEM Pinot Noir 2015 

(Central Coast, CA) $65

One of the things I love most about a great wine is contrapuntal tension—the idea that the wine embodies completely opposite characteristics within the same sensory second. It might be concentrated but light; fruity but spicy; powerful yet elegant; satiny yet crisp. It’s a head trip when a wine does that. Which is why this Williams Selyem is so intriguing. It yin-yangs it’s way over your palate as if on a shopping spree, picking up descriptors as it goes. All you can do is hold on. This Central Coast pinot is theoretically the simplest of the numerous 2015 pinots Williams Selyem has made. I’m now dying to taste the rest. (13.2% abv)
