Gallo Winery. It is particularly known for its eponymous proprietary red wine, prized for its dense, dark rich fruit and full body. The estate is famous for its involvement with some of the greatest winemaking names in California. Randy Dunn of Dunn Vineyards made the first vintage of the proprietary red in 1986, Bob Levy of Harlan Estate launched Pahlmeyer Chardonnay in 1991 and prominent Napa winemaker Helen Turley was in charge of winemaking through most of the 1990s. Pahlmeyer's aim at the outset was to create a \"California Mouton\" – California's version of the famed Château Mouton-Rothschild wines of Pauillac, in Bordeaux. The project got off to a good start, with the proprietary red getting a 94-point rating from famed US wine critic Robert Parker on its first release. The label proceeded to establish itself as one of Napa Valley's standard-bearers, commanding high prices and a cult following. The brand has not established a home winery and has a history of making wines in other facilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e","published_at":"2024-01-05T11:48:28-05:00","created_at":"2023-12-30T17:34:49-05:00","vendor":"CaskCartel.com","type":"Wine","tags":["Country_United States","Other_Wine","Producer_Pahlmeyer","Ramzo2812","Region_California","Source_WineOnlineDelivery1223","Type_Red Wine","Varietal_Merlot"],"price":13180000,"price_min":13180000,"price_max":13180000,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":44138125394058,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":null,"requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"2016 | Pahlmeyer | Merlot","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":13180000,"weight":5443,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/7_42577bb8-bec3-4b43-bd7a-ff0d59b543ce.png?v=1703975752"],"featured_image":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/7_42577bb8-bec3-4b43-bd7a-ff0d59b543ce.png?v=1703975752","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":"2016 | Pahlmeyer | Merlot at CaskCartel.com","id":25791226544266,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.334,"height":464,"width":155,"src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/7_42577bb8-bec3-4b43-bd7a-ff0d59b543ce.png?v=1703975752"},"aspect_ratio":0.334,"height":464,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/caskcartel.com\/cdn\/shop\/files\/7_42577bb8-bec3-4b43-bd7a-ff0d59b543ce.png?v=1703975752","width":155}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003ch2\u003eRed Wine: 2016 | Pahlmeyer | Merlot\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHedonistic, featuring dark plum, kirsch and cherry tart flavors that are lavishly oaked.
