Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red 1999 is a Bordeaux-style blend primarily composed of Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Merlot, Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Cabernet Franc. This vintage has undergone ageing in French oak barrels, including a portion of new oak, which contributes to its flavour complexity. As part of a producer renowned for its premium wines, Pahlmeyer, now under E. & J. Gallo, consistently crafts blends that aim for intensity and balance, with each vintage offering a slightly varied composition.

Vinous
Bright, full medium ruby. Subdued but highly complex nose melds black raspberry, blueberry, plum, licorice, mocha, leather and tar. Offers compelling sweetness and density, with sharply focused flavors of black fruits, minerals and roast coffee, but comes across as less expressive today than the merlot, and still tight on the back half. But a wine of outstanding breadth and persistence, deeper and sweeter than the 2000. Tannins are substantial but quite fine.
