Somm Note
Winemaker Notes
Offering elegance, complexity and richness, the 2007 Point Rougeis an exceptional wine. The nose is filled with aromas of ripeapple, citrus oils, orange rind, William pear, dried apricot, candiedpineapple and acacia. Seamless and rich in the mouth, notes ofcoconut, creme brulee, honeysuckle, chestnut skin, vanilla andwhite truffle are framed with a wet stone-like minerality. The wineoffers a rare harmony as well as extraordinary tactile persistence.Already refined, the wine will gain even more complexity in 4-5years and should continue to age gracefully for two decades.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
The 2007 Chardonnay Point Rouge (280 cases) has moved out of the restrained state it was in a year ago, and now exhibits splendidly intense, nearly over-the-top levels of honeyed tropical fruits, hazelnut, almond paste, quince, and peach liqueur. Full-bodied, thick, and rich yet braced by considerable acidity, this is a remarkable tour de force in Chardonnay that should age for a decade or more.

Wine Spectator
deliciously rich, creamy style, with smoky, toasty oak wrapped around fig, melon and honeysuckle. Full-blown, focused, concentrated and persistent, with a long, amazing finish.

In 1982 Sir Peter and Lady Margaret Michael built the Peter Michael Winery on a square mile of rocky volcanic ridges that form the western face of Mount St. Helena in Knights Valley, Sonoma County, California. The estate vineyards rest on steep hillsides ranging in elevation from 1100 to nearly 2000 feet. Of the nearly 600 estate acres, only about 20% are planted to grapes. Peter Michael Winery is best known for single-vineyard and estate grown Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and a Cabernet Sauvignon cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Cabernet Franc. The Peter Michael Winery remains true to its commitment to growing classic grape varieties in small mountain vineyards in order to produce great wines using classical winemaking techniques. Given this covenant to the product, only a limited quantity will ever be available.
