Similar in color but lighter in hue, the medium ruby-colored 2008 Pinot Noir Weir Vineyard has high acid, tart red currants, pomegranate, and hints of cranberries and sour cherries. It is a medium to full-bodied, tart style of Pinot Noir that lacks generosity but is pleasant, and acid freaks will adore it. With thirteen separate Pinot Noirs, Williams-Selyem has something for just about everybody. Eight of these Pinot Noirs hail from relatively well-known sites in the Russian River and three come from the Sonoma Coast, while the two outliers are the Weir Vineyard from Yorkville Highlands and the Ferrington Vineyard from the Anderson Valley. Three well-regarded vineyards of the Sonoma Coast comprise part of this impressive Pinot Noir portfolio from Williams-Selyem. With eight Russian River bottlings, the two with the largest availability are the Eastside Road Neighbors and Westside Road Neighbors, which are blends from different fruit sources. The most underrated wines in the entire portfolio are the Zinfandels that come from winemaker Bob Cabrol. Tel. (707) 433-6425; Fax (707) 433-6546

A great Weir from Williams Selyem, showing a complex balance on the warm-cool-climate spectrum. It’s very ripe in blackberries and cherries, but crisp in acidity, firm in tannins, and totally dry. Balanced and delicious but young, this wine will benefit from six years in a proper cellar.——S.H.(2/1/2011)—— 93
