Pahlmeyer 2007 Proprietary Red Wine 96+WA:
The sensational 2007 Proprietary Red Wine (a 7,000-case blend of 82% Cabernet
Sauvignon and the rest Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec) is
slightly more restrained aromatically than the Merlot, but there is no doubting
its extraordinary bouquet of subtle smoked meats, oak, mountain wild flowers,
blueberries, blackberries, coffee, and cassis. Super-rich and full-bodied with
noticeable, but stunningly sweet tannins, it possesses a rare minerality and
definition, characteristics that seem to be found across the board in Napa’s
2007s. This dense, powerful red needs 3-5 years of cellaring, and should have 25
years of life ahead of it.
