Harlan Estate 2007<br />
Napa<br />
“The prodigious 2007 Harlan Estate reminds me of a hypothetical<br />
blend of the 2002 with a touch of the controversial 1997. Dense plum/<br />
purple-colored with sweet aromas of barbecue smoke, blueberries,<br />
blackberries, cassis, licorice, hot rocks and subtle oak, it is a splendidly<br />
opulent, pure wine with a skyscraper-like texture as well as stunningly<br />
deep fruit that expands gracefully across the palate. The finish lasts<br />
nearly a full minute. Because of its overwhelming richness and sweet<br />
tannins, this brilliant wine seems to be approachable now, but I<br />
suspect further nuances and complexity will emerge after 4-5 years<br />
in the bottle. This wine will still be going strong at age 25-30. Like the<br />
offerings from its sister estate, Bond, these Harlan Estate offerings are<br />
uncompromisingly brilliant examples of Napa viticulture and winemaking<br />
at its finest. Kudos to proprietor Bill Harlan.” R. Parker, 100 pts. 12/10<br />
