Pahlmeyer Jayson Red

Pahlmeyer Jayson Red is a distinguished wine crafted by Pahlmeyer Winery, located in the renowned Napa Valley and owned by E & J Gallo Winery. This wine is a blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Petit Verdot, and Cabernet Franc, sourced primarily from Atlas Peak and other exceptional vineyards in Napa Valley. The grapes are meticulously hand picked and hand sorted before undergoing fermentation in stainless steel tanks to enhance their fruit profile and retain bright acidity. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 15 months in new French oak barrels, adding depth and complexity with 15.2% alcohol by volume (ABV). Voluptuousness meets vibrance in this classic Bordeaux inspired blend. Ripe Merlot dominant aromas of juicy macerated raspberry unfurl with hints of pencil lead, clove, cedar, and fresh sage. The compact fruit core, flanked by fine, polished tannin, surges open on a full, silky palate, giving way to complex underpinnings of earth and spice. A beam of bright acidity keeps the fruit fresh and focused through a soft, lingering finish of dusty plum and cocoa.

Jayson Red pairs exceptionally well with hearty dishes such as roasted pork tenderloin, charcuterie plates, and richly flavored meats like beef and lamb. Its robust structure and balanced tannins complement the savory and umami flavors of these foods, creating a harmonious dining experience. This wine's expressive character and intricate flavors make it a standout choice for those seeking a premium wine experience.
