Thomas and Joseph Keller are both fans of Pahlmeyer's three outstanding wines, priced at about $50 a bottle: a Chardonnay with golden fruit flavor; a deep-red Merlot; and a modestly labeled "red wine," a big red Bordeaux blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot grapes. Only 2,000 cases or so of each wine are produced annually. French Laundry carries all three wines on its list; The Woodbox Inn offers the "red." The 1995 Merlot is currently available; the 1996 Pahlmeyer Chardonnay will be released in May and the 1995 "red" will be available in July. To order, call the winery at 707-255-2321.
