Pahlmeyer Merlot 2006 showcases meticulous craftsmanship typical of Pahlmeyer Winery in Napa. This Merlot’s grapes are hand-sorted and de-stemmed, followed by a secondary hand-sorting before a four-day cold soak to enhance flavour extraction. Native yeast initiates fermentation in small, open-top fermenters over approximately three weeks. Following gentle pressing, the wine matures in 80% new French oak for nearly 18 months. Bottled unfined and unfiltered, it presents characteristics shaped by its careful production process, reflecting the terroir of Napa Valley.
92 Vinous
(includes 11% cabernet sauvignon) Full ruby-red. Black raspberry, licorice, truffle, shoe polish and a note of black olive on the nose. Sweet, lush and plump, with expressive flavors of black plum syrup, dark chocolate, mocha and truffle. This boasts a solid middle (the addition of some cabernet adds weight and fills out the palate, notes winemaker Green) to support its substantial ripe tannins. Finishes with dark fruits and earth. This has turned out very well.
