A bottle of Harlan Estate 2012 Napa Valley red wine, bottled by Harlan Estate, Oakville, California.
This is bottle number 9572.
This bottle was imported to the Danish market by Peter Solberg.
'The 2012 Harlan Estate is reminiscent of their 2002. Probably a candidate for perfection with another 4-5 years of bottle age, the wine is inky plum/purple to the rim and offers a gorgeous nose of scorched earth, blackberry and cassis, forest floor, and a floral, lavender-like component followed by deep, opulent, majestic flavors that caress the palate with high but sweet tannin. This is relatively evolved, and supple and voluptuous for a young Harlan estate – hence the comparison with their compelling 2002. This wine can be drunk in several years and is likely another candidate for 30-50 years of cellaring. 99+/100' Robert Parker, Wine Advocate
