Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red 2002 is a notable Bordeaux-style red wine from Pahlmeyer Winery, established by the eponymous Jayson Pahlmeyer in 1986. This wine is a blend that primarily features Cabernet Sauvignon, with a selection of Merlot, Petit Verdot and Cabernet Franc crafted from prime Napa Valley vineyards, notably Waters Ranch and Stagecoach. Meticulous vineyard practices emphasise flavour concentration, with fermentation using native yeasts. Aged for approximately 20 months in new French oak barrels, the wine presents a profile of dark fruit characteristics, herbal undertones and structured tannins, reflecting its lineage and careful craftsmanship.

Vinous
- (75% cabernet sauvignon, 22% merlot and 1% each cabernet franc, petit verdot and malbec) Full medium ruby. Brooding, medicinal aromas of black fruits. Sweet, chewy and deep, with flavors of dark berries, violet, minerals and game freshened by harmonious acidity. Finishes long and ripe, with fine, sweet, building tannins. Green notes that the merlot in this blend is actually tighter and less fleshy than the cabernet.
