Tasting Notes
The Tesseron Estate Pym-Rae 2017 is a stunning expression of Napa’s Mount Veeder terroir — a wine of great depth, precision, and character. Aromas of black cherry, cassis, graphite, and violet unfold in layers, complemented by subtle notes of cedar, cocoa, and crushed rock. On the palate, it is full-bodied yet remarkably poised, revealing waves of dark fruit, fine-grained tannins, and a seamless balance between power and refinement. The finish is long and mineral-driven, showcasing purity and elegance.

Vintage Highlights
2017 presented a challenging growing season, yet the vineyard’s elevated slopes and meticulous viticulture delivered fruit of exceptional concentration and vibrancy. The blend — dominated by Cabernet Sauvignon with Merlot and Cabernet Franc — was aged for 18 months in French oak, resulting in a wine of remarkable harmony, freshness, and structure.

Why It’s Special
Once the former Robin Williams Vineyard, this historic Mount Veeder estate was acquired by the Tesseron family of Château Pontet-Canet fame. Under their stewardship, Pym-Rae has emerged as a symbol of Old World finesse meeting New World intensity — a Napa Valley masterpiece that bridges Bordeaux precision and California opulence.
