Peter Michael Winery Pinot Noir Le Caprice 2016  - First Bottle

Reviews

98 Jeb Dunnuck -
The 2016 Pinot Noir Le Caprice is flat out gorgeous! Black cherries, currants, toasted oak, caramelized raspberries, and exotic flower notes all soar from the glass of this rich, full-bodied, yet elegant, seamless Pinot Noir. It has fine, fine tannin, no hard edges, beautiful intensity, and a gorgeous finish. It shows more and more forest floor and earthy/leather notes with time in the glass and is a world-class, elegant, seamless, gorgeous wine.
93-95 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate -
Medium to deep ruby-purple colored, the 2016 Pinot Noir le Caprice has a gorgeous perfume of red roses, lavender and black cherries with nuances of raspberry leaves, dried herbs, cinnamon stick and mossy bark. Medium to full-bodied, the palate has great intensity with plenty of cherry and spicy layers supported by seamless acid and firm, fine tannins, finishing with lingering savory and anise notes. To be bottled in February 2018; 940 cases are expected.

Too late, we are SOLD OUT!
Greatest producer of Pinot and Chard in California? The critics certainly think so --- just take a look at the scores for these wines, year after year, like clockwork. Rich, intense, opulent and hedonistic any way you slice it!

About the Producer

In 1982, after a six year search, Sir Peter Michael and Lady Michael purchased 630 acres of volcanic ridges on the western face of Mount St. Helena in Knights Valley. Drawing inspiration from the great wineries of Burgundy and Bordeaux, the family hired like-minded viticulturists and winemakers to help them create terroir-driven wines that would stand the test of time.
