Tasting Note

Aromas of blackberry and cassis leap from the glass with an underscore of black olive and dark earth. The palate is muscular yet refined, a lithe dance of richness and nuance. A focused core of fresh dark fruit—blackberry, boysenberry, and black plum near the skin—is enveloped in polished tannins that lend a weighty grip without overpowering. A lifting note of lingonberry jam runs long through the finish, interplaying with hints of cedar, fresh leather, and sage that echo long on the finish.

Product Notes

The Pahlmeyer Napa Valley Merlot wine is a sublime embodiment of sophistication and depth. Its alluringly opaque ruby hue captures the eye while the bold aromas of black cherry, rose petals and savoury spices enchant the nose. On the palate, the wine offers an opulent profusion of flavours such as ripe plum, black tea, and a hint of cocoa that emerge with decadent intensity. Mature, silky tannins in the robust body give way to a lengthy and satisfying finish. This magisterially articulated wine from California's renowned vineyards indeed offers quite the delight for discerning oenophiles.
