Fostered Passion!

Who is Selin Cellars?

With a passion for wine and over 30 years spent in multiple wine regions, winemaker Peter Selin finally moved to Sonoma Valley, where he felt most at home, pursuing that passion. This image is of the vineyard of the first contract signed, Pucionni Ranch, in Dry Creek.

How was Selin Cellars inspired?

With a love for the best fruit and boutique, hands-on style wines, Sonoma Valley grew as a home with the friendship and brotherhood of winemaker Chris Taddei (Taddei Family Wines and Super Sonoman) and his extended family with the Taddei's. With a career in technology behind, moving to Sonoma Valley was an easy transition and Selin Cellars was born in 2019.

Wine Style

With a love for many styles of wine and winemaking methods, the desire was to make big, bold, velvety wines that make you feel fulfilled and comforted when you drink them.

I choose to find unique varietals to focus on, but, I am blessed to work with other varietals with Chris while I focus on the unique.

Wine regions?

Napa is wonderful, but, has become much more business and Sonoma is so much more family, to me. I feel blessed to work with some of the best Napa has to offer (with Chris), while all my fruit is Sonoma based!

I also love the other wonderful AVA's in California, but, focus on local fruit, for now.

What's coming?

The 2022 wines have been tasting awesome with the cab franc winning a best in class at the SF Chronicle (this is the wine that is also "The Gov'ner"), and will be releasing gradually.

The 2023 season was an odd, but a good one, with lower alcohol, due to the long/cold growing season. We have a small lot of malbec, made in honor of our good friends from London, Anna &

Richard.

Questions?

I am going to try and post full information about my fruit, methods, vineyards and many pictures of the vineyards and production.

Please ask any questions and let me know if you want more information posted, either here or in my Instagram.
