Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red 1994 is a hallmark of Napa Valley viticulture, representing the expertise of Pahlmeyer Winery, established by Jayson Pahlmeyer in 1986. This vintage is primarily a Bordeaux-style blend, featuring a significant portion of Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot. The grapes are sourced from distinguished high-elevation vineyards, contributing to the wine`s structure and complexity. It undergoes extended aging in new French oak barrels, offering nuances of dark fruit and earthy undertones, with a firm tannin profile indicating potential for further maturation.

The proprietary red wine made by Pahlmeyer is usually a blend of 75%-80% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and a tiny quantity of Malbec. The 1994 Proprietary Red Wine exhibits a purple/black color, as well as sweet, integrated tannin, a gorgeous blackcurrant, toast, tar, and licorice-scented nose, fabulous texture, and a 35-45 second finish. The 1994 may be slightly sweeter in the mid-palate than the 1995, but the differences are negligible. The abundant tannin is mostly concealed by the wine`s wealth of fruit, glycerin, and alcohol. This wine should drink well from the late nineties through the first two decades of the next century. Very impressive! - Robert M. Parker, Jr.
