Note di degustazione
Ripe black fruits, graphite, plums, and darker cherry notes all emerge from the 2019 Merlot, another terrific, rich, concentrated, and full-bodied effort from Pahlmeyer. I love its purity, it has ultra-fine tannins, and a great finish. I’d happily drink a bottle any time over the coming 10-12 years.

Pahlmeyer's 2019 Merlot comes mainly from the estate vineyard, with smaller proportions from the Rancho Chimiles, Broken Rock and Stagecoach Vineyards. It's all Merlot this year, with aging in barrels from Taransaud (75% new). Beautiful notes of loamy earth and mocha accent black cherries and plums on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is somewhere between velvet and silk in texture, and the lingering finish adds savory hints of cocoa and black olive.
Ripe plums and blueberries with slate, sweet tobacco and bark, Full-bodied, yet very fresh, with firm, layered tannins and a rich finish. Spices at the end. Juicy. Better in two or three years. Try after 2025.
