The Winery

Pahlmeyer

Jayson Pahlmeyer, a former trial attorney quit his legal work and decided to satisfy his craving for wine into a career in Napa Valley. His dream was to create a “California Mouton” and in 1986 his Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red was the realization of a dream come true, and was the first of many critically acclaimed wines. With the help of many fantastic winemakers from Randy Dunn to Helen Turley they have all helped in the production of this iconic Napa Valley Bordeaux blend. Pahlmeyer’s viticultural practices demand low yields while commanding maximum flavor intensity. Farming in one- to two-acre blocks with a palette of as many as 12 clones for each variety, Pahlmeyer’s world-class pedigree of artisanal winemaking continues to rise to astonishing levels. Magnificent terroir, winemaking soul and masterwork fill each bottle of Pahlmeyer wine.We are excited to offer you today elegant, rigorously classic and age worthy wines!

Tasting Notes

WA95
Pahlmeyer’s spectacular 2012 Chardonnay offers abundant aromas of hazelnuts, buttered citrus, tropical fruits and honeysuckle intermixed with a touch of tangerine oil. It cuts a full-bodied swath across the palate, and possesses good acidity, exuberant fruit and an undeniably sexy style.
WS93
Intense, with pure, rich, vivid pear, apricot, apple and spice notes that take on a cedar and hazelnut edge on the finish, gaining length and depth. Ends with a burst of anise and smoke. Drink now through 2020.
