2013 Peter Michael Pinot Noir Le Moulin Rouge
UNITED STATES / CALIFORNIA / MONTEREY
Wine Spectator | Rating: 89
Very tight and dense, with a rich core of dusty wild berry, savory herb, cedar, dill and gravel flavors. Clamps down on the finish, where the flavors are cramped yet persistent. Drink now through 2021. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 740 cases made.Author: James Laube
Peter Michael's estate vineyards (founded in 1982) are what make his wines truly exceptional. Sugarloaf Ranch sits high above Knights Valley in eastern Sonoma County, and from its rocky volcanic soil come Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The Alexander Mountain Estate Vineyard, above Alexander Valley, provides additional Chardonnay. All Peter Michael wines are site-driven single vineyard bottlings, whether from the estate or the limited sourced appellations. The line-up of estate wines is supplemented by a Pinot Noir from Pisoni Vineyard called "Le Moulin Rouge."
