Introduction

Peter Michael Le Moulin Rouge Pinot Noir Santa Lucia  2022 is an exquisite expression of Pinot Noir from a revered California producer. This wine, therefore, originates from the highly regarded Pisoni Vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands AVA. The name “Le Moulin Rouge,” or “The Red Mill,” pays homage to the iconic Parisian cabaret, and it reflects the wine’s vibrant, energetic, and expressive character. The vineyard’s cool climate and unique soils, coupled with the long, mild 2022 growing season, allowed the grapes to ripen slowly. This process, in turn, developed deep, concentrated flavors while maintaining a lively acidity. This is a powerful yet elegant Pinot Noir, which embodies Peter Michael’s commitment to crafting world-class, terroir-driven wines.

Character Description

Peter Michael Le Moulin Rouge Pinot Noir Santa Lucia 2022 displays a medium to deep ruby-purple color. The bouquet is pure and intense, as it offers fragrant notes of black cherry, black plum, and ripe strawberry. These are complemented by sophisticated notes of clove, anise, and a subtle earthiness. On the palate, the wine is rich and full-bodied, with a generous mouthfeel. Flavors of vibrant dark and red fruits are framed by well-behaved, fine-grained tannins and a refreshing acidity. The finish is long and savory, showcasing a seamless texture and impressive precision.

Perfect Pairings

This structured and aromatic Pinot Noir pairs beautifully with refined dishes. For example, its elegant fruit and earthy notes complement roasted duck, goose, or other game birds. It is also an excellent match for dishes featuring mushrooms, such as a rich mushroom risotto, or for a herbed roasted chicken. The wine’s vibrant acidity and structured tannins can also stand up to savory, slightly richer foods, which makes it a versatile choice for a sophisticated meal.

About the Winery

Sir Peter Michael founded Peter Michael Winery in 1982 with a vision to create world-class, terroir-driven wines based on classical French traditions. The winery’s philosophy, “mountain vineyards, classical winemaking, limited production,” guides their entire operation. This dedication to meticulous viticulture and non-interventionist winemaking allows the unique character of each vineyard to express itself. As a result, the Le Moulin Rouge Pinot Noir is a testament to this philosophy, producing elegant, age-worthy wines that reflect their unique, high-elevation Santa Lucia Highlands terroir.
