2006 Pahlmeyer Proprietary Red Napa Valley
95pts(WA)Most of the fruit comes from the Stagecoach Vineyard and the Waters
Ranch. Sweet, smoky, meaty aromas interwoven with melted asphalt,
camphor, balckberry, cassis, and charcoal scents emerge from the
complex aromatics. In the mouth, the wine is full-bodies, displaying
sweet tannin, a concentrated mouthfeel, and a long, heady finish with
substantial fruit, glycerin, and extract. It should drink beautifully
for 20+ years." Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Issue 180, December 2008
93pts(IWC) Good
medium
ruby. Musky aromas of black raspberry, mocha and smoke. Ripe, lush,
seamless and deep; broad for the vintage, with plenty of mid-palate
stuffing to support its tannins. This, too, is still youthfully
unevolved and will need longer to express its inherent sweetness. Like
the 2006 merlot, this merited a score at the high end of my original
projected range. Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar, May/June 2009
90pts(WS)Firm and structured, with a taut mix of dried
currant, anise, sage, dusty berry and cedary oak. Full-bodied,
concentrated and marked by chewy tannins, this is closed and needs
time. This was the better of two bottles. Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot,
Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. Best from 2010 through 2016.JL Wine Spectator, November 15, 2009 This is a California Wine.
