It is a dark purple wine, with a nose featuring ripe blackberries and cassis, vanilla, tar, cigar and clove. The palate is quite nice, with cherry, blueberry and raspberry flavors draped with a bit of oak spice and offering a silky set of tannins. I paired it with a rib eye and used it in my skillet mushrooms. The wife gave me a big thumbs up, so I know it worked. — 8 months ago

So incredibly well put-together, rich nose and knit in the way only CA chard can be - large and oaky, but this one intricately melded together with tropical fruit, banana skins and crisp minerality. Impressive and age-worthy from magnum. — 10 months ago

Ruby color, slight purple edges, with aromas of red fruits, forest floor, floral and smoky spice, aged in 50% new French oak. On the palate flavors of cherry and raspberry with cedar notes, tea, cola, black pepper, cinnamon spice and earthy herbs, very complex. Full-bodied, fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, oak and a spicy earthy character. Needs more bottle time, will age well! Pair this with a grilled salmon or maple glazed pork chop! — 7 months ago

The 2021 Chardonnay Belle Côte is a wine of tremendous density and power. Orchard fruit, dried pear, graphite, anise and dried flowers infuse the 2021 with tremendous flavor complexity. Readers will find an intensely mineral, savory Chardonnay with the fruit pushed into the background. Belle Côte is the original Chardonnay planting at Peter Michael.

Perfect companion on a warm Texas night. Refreshing and light. I forgot how much I do enjoy a white every now and then.

An old standard in our household. Velvety smooth, rich juicy berries. Glad we can purchase Freakshow even at Costco in TX and have a solid, boozy Cab at the ready. — 3 years ago

Surprising complexity. Excellent cabernet. This is one of our top 5 cabs, well worth the price. Decant at least an hour! It was hiding up til then. — 8 years ago

A sublime Napa Pinot Noir: light and delicate, yet hearty on the middle of the tongue with a smooth red fruit forward finish that brings it all home. Perfect pair with a red meat meal or will do quite well solo with a light snack. Bravo! — 8 months ago

Great wine. Hate the name (fume Blanc) and even want it in a different bottle shape, but the fruit pops. Well make. Oak usage but not flabby. Very good wine! Enjoyed! — 9 months ago

2007 Peter Michael Point Rouge Chardonnay. HB w MnD and J&D B. We loved this wine wine so much at the Heart concert and we loved it tonight. Floral, along with notes of buttery brioche and oak. However, somewhat surprisingly, as we drank this in comp to the 2013 Ridge Monte Bello Chardonnay, it did not win out. Still such a great wine that we really, really enjoyed. — 8 years ago
