It began in the late 1970s, initially as a garage project by Ed Selyem and Burt Williams in Forestville, a community in Sonoma County. In 1981 the pair – who were neighbors – officially named their project Hacienda Del Rio and established it as a legal winery. Two years later, the release of their first commercial vintage (1981) coincided with a cease-and-desist order from Hacienda Winery, leading them to change their name to Williams Selyem.

Williams Selyem found its success buying and bottling single-vineyard wines, with Pinot Noir as the focus. Single-vineyard wines were not new to California, but the first for Williams Selyem was its 1985 Rochioli Vineyard Pinot Noir.

While Pinot Noir dominates production, Williams Selyem also makes a small amount of Chardonnay, Zinfandel, and a Port-style fortified dessert wine. These offerings vary in production from year to year but many also carry single-vineyard designations.

    Robert Parker Rating 93 RP - I loved the 2005 Pinot Noir Hirsch Vineyard for its sweet red apple skin, pomegranate, cherry, raspberry, earthy, forest floor, and juicy meat-like perfume. This full-bodied, tannic Pinot requires additional bottle age, but it should prove to be uncommonly long-lived
    Antonio Galloni Rating 93 AG - Dark ruby. Deep, rich aromas of potent dark berries and kirsch, with suggestions of tobacco, licorice and dark chocolate. A full-throttle, very ripe and sweet pinot with concentrated dark fruit flavors, a lush texture and big but well-buffered tannins. Finishes on a rich boysenberry note, with excellent length.
    Wine Spectator Rating Tight and compact, with complex herb, dried cherry and wild berry flavors that take on a savory, earthy, minerally note on the finish.
