This wine was singing tonight. Opened to celebrate our daughters 11th birthday. Explosive nose of dark fruits that brought me back to the first time I had a bottle of Harlan. Perfectly integrated oak and super fine tannins on the medium to full bodied mid-palate that lingered for 45 seconds. Flavors of cassis, eucalyptus, black cherry coats the mouth over this prolonged finish. Made me happy I have a good stash of high quality 2001/2 Napa Cabs in the cellar. Peaking now but I suspect the structure is there for it to hold in his spot for at least another 3 years.
