2004 Williams Selyem Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast (USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast) (90 pts)

Clear, light ruby color. Red fruit nose with loads of Asian spice and specifically cardamom and clove. Good texture and lovely acidity. Fruit veers towards strawberry and cranberry. Lighter style of Pinot, but one that will reward a couple of years of patience. Finish is nice and balanced. Very good wine. Would buy again, although I do consider it slightly atypical for Sonoma Coast (I usually think of darker fruit from SC).
