Sir Peter started Peter Michael Winery in 1983 with a singular vision: to make wine in the terroir-driven tradition of Burgundy and Bordeaux, under the California sun and in California soil.
Today, we make fifteen wines in four varietal categories. All but one are estate-grown in our mountainside vineyards, and all are crafted by hand and in limited production.
We are guided by the patience that good wine requires and our love and respect for this land. These are the values that shape everything we do.
One family......Nine mountain vineyards........Over thirty-five years of handcrafted, amazing limited-production wines.

| Robert Parker | 98 RP - FIRST VINTAGE - From the Sonoma Coast vineyard with the most southerly exposure, the 2009 Pinot Noir Clos de Ciel (365 cases) was aged in 50% to 60% new Francois Freres barrels, and underwent a 5 to 7-day cold pre-fermentation maceration. A stunning, evolved effort, it boasts plenty of rose water, strawberry, lead pencil shavings and forest floor-like notes. This full-bodied, gorgeous Pinot should be drunk over the next decade. |

| Robert Parker Rating | 95 RP - The 2022 Pinot Noir Clos du Ciel is evocative of the forest and the ocean, segueing from blueberry and cranberry to wildflowers, fennel and nori, and its new oak is very well integrated. The medium-bodied palate offers tremendous depth of flavor for its silky, mouthwatering frame, and it has a dynamic finish streaked with earth and spice. |
