Merchant's description

Peter Michael Belle Côte Chardonnay 2011 is a noteworthy offering from the esteemed Peter Michael Winery, located in the Knights Valley AVA of Sonoma County, California. Sourced from the historic Belle Côte vineyard, established in 1990, this Chardonnay benefits from high elevation and a cool microclimate. The winery employs a Burgundian-inspired technique involving hand-harvesting and natural fermentation in French oak barrels, with a portion of new oak. The 2011 vintage reveals subtle notes of citrus zest, white flowers and mineral undertones, resulting in a structured palate that invites contemplation.
