Sourced from Peter Michael’s own Les Pavots and Au Paradis vineyards and crafted by winemaker Nicolas Morlet, it shows the pedigree, depth, and structure you’d expect from a top-tier mountain Cabernet blend. The 2018 vintage, in particular, brings impressive finesse and concentration, making this an outstanding introduction to the estate’s style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMakuprofiili\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the glass, it presents a deep, dark ruby profile that hints at its richness and concentration. The nose is generous and layered, with aromas of black cherry, plum, chocolate, black truffle, leather, licorice, and cigar box, all framed by subtle French oak.\n\nOn the palate, the wine is medium-bodied yet wonderfully velvety, with a refined texture and classic Bordeaux-like balance. The same dark-fruited, savory, and earthy notes carry through the finish, which feels long and polished. While already approachable thanks to its silky tannins, it has the structure to age gracefully over the next several years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eViininvalmistus\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis blend comes from Peter Michael’s estate vineyards in California, specifically Les Pavots and Au Paradis, where the mountain terroir contributes both intensity and freshness. The grapes were blended from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot, then matured for 18 months in French oak barrels to build complexity and refine the tannins. The result is a wine shaped by careful vineyard selection and classic Bordeaux-inspired winemaking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRuoka \u0026amp; tarjoilu\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis wine pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, beef tenderloin, duck breast, game birds, or mushroom-based dishes, especially those with rich sauces. Serve it at around 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if drinking young to allow the aromatics and texture to fully खुलen up.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Michael","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49122451947762,"sku":"FW-6302","price":144.4,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0826\/4810\/5202\/files\/l_esprit_des_pavots_nv.png?v=1777476100","url":"https:\/\/bottlehero.fi\/products\/peter-michael-lesprit-des-pavots-2018","provider":"Bottle Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
