Williams-Selyem Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast 2016 1.5L

91 points and ‘Outstanding,’ Allen Meadows (Burghound): “This is compositionally similar to the Central Coast cuvée though the spice elements are more pronounced. The notably sleeker medium-bodied flavors possess a lovely texture thanks to the relatively fine-grained tannins while the focused and lingering finish exhibits an appealing sense of vibrancy. I like the complexity as well as the balance though note that this needs at least 3 to 5 years first and should reward as many as 10. Drink: 2024+. (Oct 2018)”

90 points Lisa Perrotti-Brown (Wine Advocate): “Pale ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast has pretty potpourri, rose water and lavender notes over a core of kirsch and raspberry tart plus a waft of allspice. The palate is medium-bodied, soft, elegant and refreshing with a perfumed finish. 1,824 cases produced. Drink: 2018-2025. (Apr 2018)”
