Introduction

Peter Michael Ma Belle Fille Chardonnay Knights Valley 2022 is a superb Chardonnay from an esteemed winery. The name “Ma Belle Fille” means “my beautiful daughter-in-law,” and it is a tribute from Sir Peter Michael to his son’s wife, Emily. The vineyard sits at the highest elevation on the estate. It benefits from a unique terroir with volcanic, rocky soils and extended sun exposure. The 2022 vintage had low yields and high concentration, which resulted in a wine with exceptional structure and depth. This Chardonnay reflects its vineyard’s unique location and is a benchmark for the region.

Character Description

The Peter Michael Ma Belle Fille Chardonnay Knights Valley 2022 shimmers with a brilliant, yellow-gold color. The bouquet is complex and captivating. It has a fragrance of peach blossoms, white roses, and orange zest. Hints of marzipan, vanilla bean, and toasted hazelnut also layer these notes. On the palate, the wine is full-bodied and powerful, with a creamy, rich mouthfeel. A core of intense stone fruit, citrus, and liquid mineral notes is supported by a vibrant, focused acidity. The finish is long and expansive, leaving a lasting impression of elegant fruit, nougat, and nuanced minerality.

Perfect Pairings

This monumental Chardonnay is perfect for robust and elegant dishes. Its rich texture and vibrant acidity make it a great companion for rich seafood. It pairs beautifully with pan-seared scallops, lobster, or grilled halibut. It also works well with roasted chicken or pork loin. For a truly decadent experience, serve it with a mushroom and truffle risotto, or with a variety of cheeses.

About the Winery

Sir Peter Michael founded Peter Michael Winery in 1982. He had a vision to create world-class, terroir-driven wines. His philosophy is “mountain vineyards, classical winemaking, limited production.” This dedication allows each parcel’s unique character to express itself fully. The Ma Belle Fille is a testament to this philosophy, showing the remarkable power and finesse their highest-elevation, mountain-grown Chardonnay can achieve.
