The 2010 Harlan Estate Napa Valley Proprietary Red 1500 ml is from the Napa Valley region of California. Since its first commercial release of the 1990 vintage, Harlan has been producing top notch wines that impress critics and are coveted by enthusiasts. Production from their vineyards in the western hillsides of Oakville, planted to 70% cabernet, 20% merlot, 8% cab franc and 2% petit verdot, averages 1,800 cases annually. As Robert Parker says, "These wines possess all the elements of greatness - individuality, power combined with elegance, extraordinary complexity, remarkable aging potential, and compelling richness without ponderousness." To reinforce the accuracy of this sentiment, Robert Parker has awarded the Harlan Estate wine 100-points for five different vintages. The extreme market demand often pushes the price points for these wines into the thousands. Fora slightly more affordable taste of the illustrious Harlan wines, perhaps try their second wine, called The Maiden, that unmistakably resembles her “big sister” and consistently scores 91-94 points from Wine Advocate.

98 pts - Wine Advocate

["I wouldn’t be surprised to see the 2010 Harlan Estate inch closer to perfection over the next decade. Surprisingly supple for this vintage, while this cuvee is not usually that flamboyant or exuberant in its youth, the 2010 is sensual and performing remarkably well. Its deep purple color is accompanied by notions of charcoal, graphite, camphor, creme de cassis, barbecue smoke and blackberries. As usual, this complex effort reminds me of a hypothetical blend of a great Pauillac and Graves (such as La Mission Haut-Brion). Rich, full-bodied and softer than I would have expected in this vintage, it is a prodigious, multidimensional, compelling wine. It requires 3-5 years of bottle age and should drink well over the following 30+ years. - WA, RP (10/2013)"]
