Peter Michael Chardonnay La Carriere
97 points in James Suckling - "A very complex yet subtle white with sliced cooked lemons, cream and hints of praline. Medium-to full-bodied, dense and layered with pretty fruit and lemon meringue. Love the savory and flavorful finish. Drink or hold."
96 points in Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The 2016 Chardonnay la Carriere has a delicate nose of white peaches, grapefruit and honeysuckle with a yeasty undercurrent and a waft of allspice. Medium-bodied, the palate has great elegance and sophistication, with a quiet intensity of citrus and stone fruit layers and a lively backbone, finishing with mineral nuances. To be bottled in February 2018; 1,940 cases are expected. Rating 94-96."

Winemaker Notes
The signature of this vineyard remains its terroir-driven minerality.The nose is dominated by aromas of brioche, toasted almond, dryhoney, Mirabelle plum, vine blossom, jasmine, hazelnut and Williampear. Accents of Mandarin orange, honey and vanilla completethe elegant bouquet. Citrus oils, white peach and lemon highlightthe minerality. Magnificent concentration and elegance on thepalate sculpt the structure of this wine, offering intensity and richness. The 2014 La Carrière is enjoyable now and will continue todevelop for a decade.
