Since 1986, Pahlmeyer has been producing highly sought-after wines, that began with Jayson Pahlmeyer’s dream to make world-class Bordeaux-style bottlings from Napa Valley. Jayson understood that making wines with exceptional concentration, complexity, and ageability required venturing to extremes. That’s what drew him to the rugged parcel of vines on the ridgeline of Atlas Peak that would become his iconic estate vineyard. Today, winemaker Katie Vogt continues that vision as she crafts the Pahlmeyer wines from exclusive Napa Valley mountain sites. Formed by the diversity of Stagecoach Vineyard, the intensity of Waters Vineyard and the opulence of Upper Range Vineyard, these wines offer exquisite structure, balance, tension and finesse. Meticulous attention is paid in the vineyard and cellar to allow the highest, clearest expression of the site. With an eye toward long aging, Pahlmeyer’s hallmark intensity and power is created through an impressive oak program and artful blending of each small lot.
