On May 1, Legal Harborside will host a four-plus-course wine dinner with selections from the acclaimed Knights Valley family retreat, Peter Michael Winery. The evening’s pours will be chosen by Peter Michael, a driven entrepreneur whose passion for winemaking began at his father’s side in Bordeaux and Burgundy. The dream of having his own vineyard came to realization in 1982 when he caught eye of the 630 acres of volcanic ridges and creeks on the western face of Mount St. Helena in Knights Valley, today known as the Peter Michael Winery.
Drawing inspiration from the wineries of Burgundy and Bordeaux, the Peter Michael vision is to perfect terroir-driven wines exclusive to the Cabernet, Pino Noir, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay families. Since Peter Michael fulfilled his dream and created a family empire, the complete collection consist of fifteen different blends, eight of which have earned spots on The Wine Spectator‘s Top 100 lists, and three of those blends continued on to make the Top 10.
Legal Harborside will team up with Michaels for a four-plus-course dinner featuring signature cuisine paired with select northern California-grown wines. The menu will be presented as follows on Legal Harborside’s scenic second level overlooking the Boston Harbor:
