91 points from Robert Parker.
“The proprietary red wine made by Pahlmeyer is usually a blend of 75%-80% Cabernet Sauvignon with the balance Cabernet Franc, Merlot, and a tiny quantity of Malbec. The Proprietary Red Wine exhibits a purple/black color, as well as sweet, integrated tannin, a gorgeous blackcurrant, toast, tar, and licorice-scented nose, fabulous texture, and a 35-45 second finish. The abundant tannin is mostly concealed by the wine's wealth of fruit, glycerin, and alcohol. This wine should drink well from the late nineties through the first two decades of the next century. Very impressive!
With the assistance of consulting oenologist Helen Turley, the Pahlmeyer wines have emerged as some of the finest in northern California.”

La historia de Pahlmeyer es un relato de intriga internacional, pasión y estrellato de Hollywood... De Jayson Pahlmeyer, amigos y familia... De clones franceses, vinificación legendaria y vinos icónicos...
Érase una vez un hombre con un espíritu audaz e irreprimible: un abogado litigante atraído a la profesión por su naturaleza rápida y furiosa.
El socio de Jayson pasó de contrabando sus "clones de maleta" a los EE. UU. a través de Canadá. Todo salió sin problemas hasta el último cargamento, cuando las autoridades fronterizas descubrieron las vides francesas. Ordenados a entregar todo el contrabando, mantuvieron sus clones franceses escondidos y, en cambio, entregaron a los incautos patrulleros clones comprados en la U.C. Davis.
Plantados en 1981, los esquejes franceses se adaptaron a su impacto a paso de tortuga. Al enterarse de estos locos y sus vides de Burdeos, uno de los principales enólogos de California, Randy Dunn, visitó el lugar y advirtió: "No lo arruinen". Claramente no lo hicieron, porque en 1986, al ver una promesa inigualable, Randy pidió comprar toda la cosecha. Jayson aceptó, con una condición: que Randy elaborara la mezcla tipo Burdeos del Valle de Napa "Pahlmeyer" de Jayson.
