Crafting wines that honor the land and the art of winemaking
Vision and Philosophy
Peter Michael Winery is a family-owned and operated winery nestled amidst the breathtaking landscapes of Sonoma Coast and Napa Valley. Inspired by a deep respect for land stewardship and a passion for crafting exceptional wines, we strive to capture the essence of each unique vineyard through our limited production offerings.
Stewarding the Land
With over 1,200 protected acres alive with wildlife, forests, and pristine creeks, we are committed to preserving the natural beauty and ecological balance of our lands. Over 10,000 trees have been deliberately planted to further enhance the ranch's biodiversity. We prioritize sustainable practices, earning certifications such as California Sustainable Vineyards & Winery and Fish Friendly Farming.
Crafting Exceptional Wines
Our team of experienced winemakers apply traditional techniques with meticulous precision in the vineyard and cellar. Minimal intervention ensures the distinctive character and authenticity of each vintage shine through. We specialize in crafting:
- Chardonnay: Elegant, nuanced expressions reflecting the specific terroirs of each vineyard.
- Sauvignon Blanc: Fresh and lively wines with pronounced minerality and citrus notes.
- Pinot Noir: Complex and nuanced wines showcasing varietal character and elegant structure.
- Cabernet Sauvignon: Powerful and age-worthy wines with concentrated fruit and firm tannins.
A Legacy of Family and Sustainability
Founded by Sir Peter Michael in 1987, Peter Michael Winery has been a family-run business ever since. Now led by his son, Paul, and his wife, Emily, the Michael family is committed to ensuring the winery's longevity for generations to come.
