Peter Michael Winery, Cuvée Indigène, Chardonnay--Vintage 1997
Knights Valley
"The 1997 Chardonnay Cuvée Indigène (named so because it is fermented completely with indigenous vineyard yeasts) exhibits a light gold color, and a complex nose of smoky, leesy Chardonnay fruit intermixed with smoky, roasted hazelnuts, orange blossoms, and citrus. Full-bodied with excellent underlying acidity, and more minerality to its flavors than Mon Plasir, this profoundly concentrated, complex chardonnay is a prodigious offering. Production was 550 cases, with the alcohol a boisterous 14.1 Look for this wine to drink well for 5-7 years." Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Issue 120, 12/23/98
