Pinot Noir 'Ma Danseuse'

Pinot Noir Ma Danseuse Peter Michael

The most feminine of our Pinot Noirs, this wine is made from grapes grown in the coolest, northernmost sections of our Fort Ross-Seaview vineyard, which is oriented towards the marine air moving through the Gualala River canyon.

Ma Danseuse was named for Lady Michael by Sir Peter. As a young man attending judo classes in London, Peter took note of the considerably more charming attendees of the dance school across the lane, and in particular, a certain gold medal winning ballroom dancer to whom he soon extended an invitation out. The future Lady Michael said that she would love to… as long as he himself was a medal-level ballroom dancer. The determined former judo student hit bronze in record time.

“I thought he was a rather pushy individual but I do so love to dance.” – Lady Michael

"Ripe strawberry, orange, oyster shell, lavender and umami aromas. Hints of pine undertones, Medium-bodied with a tight tannin profile that gives it length, tension and depth. Needs three or four years to come together. Best after 2027."
