Medium Ruby with aromas of black and red fruits with cedar, floral and spice notes. On the palate flavors of cherry, blackberry and cedar with smoke and tobacco notes. Generous acidity on fine soft tannins with a long finish ending with fruit and spice. Drinking well now! — 5 months ago

v19. Outstanding!!!. Golden amber color. Bold, saline, tropical fruit and toast nose. Fresh, creamy tropical fruit with hints of lime zest. Luscious soft oak finish. So good! — 3 months ago
While very good, this one needs another 8 plus yrs.
Soft subtle nose. Dark cassis, blackberries, both plums, powdery, soft earth tones, moist clay, dark, chocolate, dry herbs & brilliant floral’s.
Soft, round body. Blackberries, black raspberries, plums, very dark cherries, it’s elegant, smooth, very soft tannins, dark chocolate, soft but pointed spice, volcanics, dry stems, violets, lavender, dark
florals, brilliant acidity, elegant with soft tension, great length with a 90 second finish that lands on minerals and beautiful spice.
If there is one thing I learned tasting 6 Harlan’s is Bob Levy is one of the very best, if not thee best at managing Cabernet/Bordeaux blend tannins.
Tasting with Winemaker-Bob Levy & Managing Director-Don Weaver. — 5 months ago
Opened just prior to dinner. The 2007 pours a dark ruby/garnet color with a near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining and loads of sediment. On the nose, the wine is vinous with notes of BBQ Lay’s potato chips (fight me), prunes, dried brambles, leather, organic earth and mixed spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium acid. It doesn’t taste like BBQ Lay’s but the fruit is definitely more of the dried/desiccated side. The finish is medium. Drink now. — 7 months ago


rare to find a Chard as balanced as this one — 4 years ago
Amazing Cab sourced from Harlan Estate, BOND and Promontory young vines. Extraordinary complexity loaded with red and black fruits. Elegance, balance and everything you'd want in a special wine. Drinking fine now but easily handles another 5-10 yrs. — 9 days ago
I have wanted to try this wine for a while, and I finally got my chance. It is spectacular. Finesse personified. Chocolate, black currants, blackberries, lavender, and a hint of cedar and tobacco. — 3 months ago
Delicate, a kiss of sweetness with an herbal note. Minerality, of the warm earth, a beauty and elegance, still very much alive. Texturally and structurally beautiful. For this vintage, he hit it out of the park! — 8 months ago

Great with Cuban! — 2 years ago
A l’ouverture, nez sur les fruits noirs, herbal, cuir. Première lampé, pas certain, un peu de chauffe, fruits compotés, je lui laissé un peu d’air, ce qui lui a fait grand bien.
Apres 2 hr en carafe, le vin s’assouplit, prend forme. En bouche, on est sur les fruits foncés, les herbes, le tabac, vin bien balancé, la chauffe s’est résorbée, les tannins sont doux, la finale est quand meme bien.
