Lot 225 Details
HARLAN ESTATE PROPRIETARY RED WINE 2006
Napa.

The 2006 Harlan Estate has turned out better than I originally predicted. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by classic aromas of creme de cassis, melted licorice, smoked meats, burning embers, and graphite. It has thrown off some of the tannic clout it displayed last year, revealing great balance. A candidate for “wine of the vintage,” this dense, full-bodied effort has 25+ years of life ahead of it. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2035. 95 WS 96 WA


1 mag. (OWC) per lot $600 - $700

Realised: $1,560
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
