Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red 2001 is a Bordeaux-style blend from Pahlmeyer Winery, a notable producer in Napa Valley, California, established in 1986. This vintage is a blend predominantly featuring Cabernet Sauvignon, accompanied by Merlot and small amounts of other Bordeaux varieties. The grapes are sourced from elevated vineyards known for their diverse microclimates, enhancing the wine’s complexity. Aged for approximately 20 months in predominantly new French oak barrels, this magnum offers concentrated dark fruit characteristics alongside hints of herbs and mineral undertones. The notable tannin structure provides a foundation for ageing.
