Peter Michael Ma Danseuse Pinot Noir 2019

Peter Michael Ma Danseuse Pinot Noir 2019 is a beautifully poised California Pinot Noir, created as a tribute from Sir Peter Michael to his wife, Lady Michael. Sourced from the estate’s Seaview Vineyard, this is a wine with remarkable coastal freshness, elegance, and depth — a true world-class expression of Pinot Noir from one of California’s most distinguished producers.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it typically shows a vivid ruby color with a graceful, translucent sheen. The nose is refined and complex, offering notes of red cherry, wild strawberry, rose petal, and subtle spice, with earthy undertones and a whisper of coastal salinity. On the palate, Ma Danseuse is silky and finely structured, combining bright red berry fruit with layers of forest floor, tea leaf, and gentle oak spice. The wine is lifted by fresh acidity and polished tannins, giving it both immediate charm and the framework to age beautifully over the next 8–12 years, and potentially longer in a well-kept cellar.

Production
The grapes come from Seaview Vineyard, the estate’s high-elevation site planted on a steep hillside at around 400 meters above sea level in California. The vineyard benefits from cool Pacific breezes that preserve acidity and aromatic finesse, while ample sunlight helps the Pinot Noir achieve full ripeness and depth. This balance of maritime influence and mountain exposure is key to the wine’s precision and complexity. Vinification details are not provided, but the result suggests careful, small-lot production with a focus on purity and elegance.

Food & Serving
This Pinot Noir pairs wonderfully with roast duck, game birds, mushroom risotto, cedar-plank salmon, or herb-roasted chicken. It also works beautifully with truffle dishes and мягe, earthy cheeses. Serve at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 20–30 minutes if opening young, to allow its perfume and structure to fully unfold.

Producer
Peter Michael Winery was founded by Sir Peter Michael and is widely regarded as one of California’s benchmark producers for premium, Bordeaux- and Burgundy-inspired wines. The estate is especially known for its meticulous vineyard selection, low yields, and a philosophy that emphasizes site expression and quality over volume. Over the years, Peter Michael has earned a strong reputation for crafting wines of exceptional precision, longevity, and international acclaim.
