La famille Tesseron (Pontet Canet) a acheté, en 2016, cette grande propriété de 260 hectares dont seulement 7,50 sont plantés en vignes.
Le vignoble, 29 ans d'âge moyen, est planté en altitude (une pacelle à 500M et une autre à 600m) dans le district de Mount Veeder, un des vignobles de montagne de Napa les plus qualitatifs.
Il s'agit donc du premier millésime produit.

Le vin est vinifié dans 40 micro-cuves béton de 10 hectolitres, plus petites qu'un homme, du sur-mesure !

L'élevage est fait en barriques neuves (30%), et dans les cuves béton de vinification (70%).

Le vignoble est cultivé en agriculture biologique et biodynamique.

Pym-Rae est un vin unique, produit en quantité très limitée, qui ne ressemble à un aucun autre vin de Napa.

"Profondeur, équilibre et fraîcheur : ici chaque détail a été pensé pour révéler le potentiel de ce vignoble rare et accentuer sa singularité, sans jamais verser dans l'ostentation.
Ce premier millésime de PYM-RAE, fidèle à l'esprit dela famille Tesseron, est l’aboutissement d’un long chemin, mais aussi le début d’une nouvelle aventure."

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon from Pym Rae is named after the children of much-missed comedian Robin Williams, who originally owned the farm. Tesseron respectfully decided not to change it. I actually tasted this wine three times, here at Hatched and then twice more in Washington, DC, with Tesseron himself. Cassis and violets on the nose, this is quintessential Napa, as you would expect. I found it a little flashy, though I have it on good authority that subsequent vintages are more restrained and complex. The palate has plenty of blackberry and blueberry fruit, lush in style and thoroughly enjoyable. Glossy on the finish, I would actually afford this another year in bottle to lose some of that puppy fat.

The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is the first wine from the Tesseron family's Mount Veeder estate, the property that once belonged to comedian Robin Williams. It is certainly an impressive debut. Inky and dark, the 2016 possesses tremendous textural richness. At the moment, the 2016 is driven by its deep, luscious fruit. I imagine more site character will emerge over time. In my view, the French oak is a bit strong at this stage, but I imagine that will sort itself out in future vintages. The Pym Rae Cabernet is made by Thomas Comme, whose father Jean-Michel, spent more than twenty years at Pontet-Canet. I was impressed by the potential of this site during a visit a few years ago. This is certainly going to be an exciting project to watch.

This is the debut vintage of this wine from the esteemed Bordeaux owner, Alfred Tesseron, who bought the property in the Napa mountains in 2016. Aromas of plums, wet earth, fresh herbs and tobacco. Some green olives. Turns to blueberries and blackberries. Full-bodied, yet reserved and layered with chocolate, walnuts and plums. Firm yet polished tannins give a framed sense to the wine. Savory. Racy and beautifully structured, it’s extremely drinkable already. Real wine.

A blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 7% Cabernet Franc, the 2016 Pym-Rae displays a deep garnet-purple color and reveals wonderfully fragrant notes of candied violets, wilted roses, damp soil and black tea over a core of red and black currants, black cherries and warm blackberries plus touches of cigar box and camphor. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is evocatively singular, offering that rock-solid structure of mountain fruit, yet these are wonderfully ripe, silt-like tannins that beautifully support the elegant red and black fruit layers, finishing very long and very perfumed.
