Pahlmeyer Merlot Napa Valley(1999)

Release Date: February 1, 2002 Alcohol: 14.8 % pH: 3.89 TA: 0.55 Composition: 12% Napa Valley, 37% Howell Mountain, 36% Carneros, 15% Atlas Peak Tasting Notes: Impenetrable and inky - purple in color, the nose offers aromas of ripe, smoky plum, cherry, anise, oak, and port like sweetness. The palate is full bodied and structured with a finish that has length and intensity. Winemaking Notes: The 1999 vintage was a fine year for Napa Valley. Although the crop was smaller than the 1998, the harvest offered fruit with intense richness, acidity and wonderful density. Grapes for the 1999 read more...
