Williams Selyem Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2022

Williams Selyem Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2022 is a beautifully poised expression of coastal California Pinot Noir, combining elegance, brightness, and real depth of flavor. Sourced from the cool, fog-influenced Sonoma Coast, it captures the region’s signature freshness while showing the polished style that has made Williams Selyem one of Sonoma County’s benchmark producers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a vivid ruby-red color with a graceful, translucent depth typical of fine Pinot Noir. The nose opens with ripe strawberry, dark cherry, and a subtle earthy undertone of forest floor, lifted by a faint coastal salinity that adds extra intrigue. The palate is supple and layered, offering red berry fruit, gentle spice, and a touch of mineral tension that keeps the wine lively and focused. Silky tannins and vibrant acidity provide excellent structure, while the wine’s balance suggests it will drink well now and continue to evolve nicely over the next few years.

Production
The Sonoma Coast is defined by its cool maritime climate, morning fog, and slow-ripening conditions, all of which help preserve acidity and aromatic complexity in Pinot Noir. While detailed vinification information is not provided, the wine reflects careful vineyard selection and a style aimed at preserving purity, freshness, and site character.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir is an excellent match for grilled salmon, roast chicken with crispy skin, mushroom dishes, duck, or earthy vegetable preparations. Serve it slightly cool, ideally around 14–16°C, and consider a brief decant if opening it young to help the aromas open up fully.
