WINEMAKER NOTES
2019 Peter Michael Les Pavots Estate Red – Mountain Power with Refined Structure
The 2019 Peter Michael Les Pavots Estate Red is the flagship Bordeaux-style blend from this acclaimed Knights Valley estate. Sourced from high-elevation vineyards on the slopes of Mount St. Helena, Les Pavots is known for its combination of density, freshness, and structural precision, reflecting both mountain terroir and meticulous winemaking.
Tasting Notes
The aromatics are deep and expressive, opening with blackcurrant, dark plum, graphite, and crushed stone, layered with notes of cedar and subtle spice. On the palate, the wine is powerful yet composed, delivering concentrated dark fruit supported by finely woven tannins. Bright acidity provides lift and balance, carrying through a long, controlled finish marked by mineral and savory nuance.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Les Pavots is a Cabernet Sauvignon–led blend complemented by Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, all estate-grown in rocky, well-drained soils at elevation. Fermentation is conducted in small lots with careful extraction, followed by aging in French oak barrels to integrate structure while preserving site expression. The 2019 growing season delivered excellent ripeness with notable freshness.
Investment & Collectibility
Peter Michael wines are produced in limited quantities and consistently command strong demand from collectors. The 2019 Les Pavots Estate Red offers both near-term appeal and long-term aging potential, reinforcing its position as a benchmark mountain wine within California fine wine collections.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 2019 vintage in Knights Valley produced wines of balance and clarity, combining concentration with structural finesse. Les Pavots stands out for its harmony and ability to evolve gracefully over time.
