    “RP94 - 1996 was a much hotter year than 1997 1995 and 1994. While the 1996s are outstanding wines in some cases the aromatics are more muted because of 1996's high heat. The Chardonnays from Peter Michael are easy to understand but I am not sure Les Pavots is as fathomable. First of all Les Pavots is made in a backward Bordeaux-like style that does not offer the gush of jammy fruit so noticeable in many California Cabernets. However this is an authoritatively rich wine overlaid with a structural profile that suggests the wine needs 4-5 years of cellaring - at least in top vintages such as California has experienced in the nineties. The superb 1994 Les Pavots is to my palate the finest example of this wine Peter Michael has yet made. Since its bottling this deep saturated purple-colored wine has taken on a gorgeous nose of cassis intermixed with violets licorice and attractive spicy oak. Sweet rich and surprisingly showy for a Les Pavots this medium to full-bodied wine possesses a luscious multi-layered texture outstanding depth and attractively integrated tannin and acidity. When I tasted it it was more evolved and delicious than I had anticipated given its recent bottling. All of Peter Michael's top wines including the Chardonnays are bottled without filtration. Readers should make it a point to visit this winery situated in Knights Valley not far from the Napa/Sonoma county line. The quality is extraordinary and the commitment and talent of the winery staff laudatory. RP”

    About Michael Winery Peter

    1994 Peter Michael Les Pavots Proprietary Blend 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.
