The 2012 Harlan Estate Proprietary Red from Oakville, Napa Valley, displays an inky plum/purple hue with a gorgeous nose of scorched earth, blackberry, cassis, forest floor, and lavender.
On the palate, it offers deep, opulent flavors that caress with high yet sweet tannins, evoking the estate’s benchmark 2002 vintage in its supple, evolved elegance. Notes of violets, blueberry, walnut, and subtle graphite add layers of complexity and precision. This full-bodied wine balances muscular structure with freshness, promising decades of cellaring potential. Decant for two hours and pair with grilled ribeye or aged Gouda.
