Peter Michael Pinot Noir Ma Danseuse Sonoma Coast 2022 750ml

Sir Peter Michael's family winery is famed for its Knights Valley Cabernet, but its Pinot Noirs from the far Sonoma Coast are just as coveted. Ma Danseuse comes from a cooler, later-ripening site in the Fort Ross-Seaview appellation near the Pacific. The 2022 earned praise across the board: Jeb Dunnuck noted cherry liqueur, crushed flowers, pine resin and sappy herbs on a broad, richly styled frame with good clarity, while Wine Advocate found black cherry, cranberry, Earl Grey tea and wildflowers on a palate it called "concentrated yet weightless." Silky tannins and succulent acidity give it shape. Allow a year or two, then enjoy through the mid-2030s.
