The 2012 Proprietary Red Blend (79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot) is fabulous with complex notes of plum, blackcurrants, blueberries, raspberries, licorice and very subtle background oak followed by a full-bodied, opulently textured wine. This has voluptuous texture, tremendous opulence and is a sexy beast. Perfect purity also highlights this marvelous wine that can be drunk now or cellared for 15 more years.
93 Wine Spectator
Sleek and understated, elegant and slow to unfold, gaining depth and richness along with subtle touches of cedar, gravel, graphite and cigar box. Finishes with detailed flavor nuances and good length. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2025. 3,500 cases made.

“All I wanted to do was create my own ‘California Mouton’ – a rich, powerful Napa Valley Bordeaux blend, a wine that would drop wine lovers to their knees,” says Jayson Pahlmeyer, founder and owner of this top West Coast estate. Situated 2100 feet-above-sea-level, among the Atlas Peak appellation in Napa Valley, you will find the glorious Pahlmeyer Estate. Reflecting their commitment to the environment, this 55-hectare property has completely converted to sustainable viticulture. These innovative practices, along with reduced yielding methods and inventive vinification ideas, Jayson Pahlmeyer has realized his dream of a true ‘California Mouton’. Today, as one of Napa Valley’s leading producers, Pahlmeyer succeeds in crafting three super-premium Californian wines – the Proprietary Red, a Merlot, and a Chardonnay.
