1997 Peter Michael Mon Plaisir Chardonnay - 94 pts!
One of the most exciting in California, this beautiful winery is owned by Englishman Sir Peter Michael. When he launched this winery, Michael had the foresight originally to hire the brilliant Helen Turley to oversee the winemaking. The current vineyard/winemaking team, Nicolas Morlet whom took over from his brother Luc, shares Ms. Turley's winemaking philosophy.

The present as well as upcoming releases are irrefutably brilliant wines. Peter Michael produces amazing single vineyard Cabernet, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Sauvignon Blanc as well. Peter Michael Winery remains a family-owned estate that is now run by Peter's son Paul. Only a small number of cases reach the retail market as the majority are set aside for the mailing list and long-term restaurant clientele.

Rating 94 RP - 1997 Peter Michael Mon Plaisir Chardonnay - 94 pts! The dazzling 1997 Chardonnay Mon Plaisir (1,200 cases) displays a light to medium straw color, and expressive aromatics consisting of tangerine/orange and other tropical fruits. In the mouth, notes of lemon butter make an appearance in this full-bodied, expansive, rich, fleshy Chardonnay that tips the scales at 14.1% alcohol. With fabulous fruit, the Mon Plaisir appears to be the qualitative equal of the more expensive Cuvee Indigene and Point Rouge. RP
