2004 Peter Michael La Carrière
“The spectacular Chardonnay La Carrière is becoming one of my favorite California Chardonnays, as it tastes like a Corton-Charlemagne on steroids… it possesses that extraordinary minerality, orange marmalade, and layered, full-bodied, concentrated palate. This beauty is a great expression of stone fruits and higher elevation, cool climate Chardonnay. It should drink well for 4-5 years.”
-Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
After thoroughly enjoying the 2004 at the Water Grill, I was thrilled to see the 2005 on the wine list at Trump National Golf Club in Rancho Palos Verdes, California last night. Both delicious (at this time I prefer the 2004).

Cynthia – when I come across a wine that “blows me away,” I’ll be talking about it. Stay tuned…
Carol – When I was in the wine business, I too, was a part of a label design, it was an interesting process, but in the end too many people had input and the label became a combination of everyone’s vision. In my opinion, that process doesn’t work in design or decor. The Peter Michael label, however, is very classy. Is your art on a bottle of California wine?
Please be my guest and paint any of my photos. I would be honored and love to see it!

Beautiful wine shot Lori.
I work with the CA label designer who created Peter Michaels logo & label!
I have to confess I know nothing about wines but my eyes and ears are always out for tips and recommendations on what to try, so thank you
