HARLAN ESTATE 1994 |

Harlan Estate 1994 NapaScuffed and stained labelsThis was a superb year, warm but giving good acidity and a good crop. Great meaty, classic bouquet. Very 'there', very flag- waving. Incredible chocolate, coffee and cassis taste. Meaty, rich flavour and thick, all-enveloping texture. So complete a wine. Another bottle had superb, inky, violetty fruit and a satiny texture. Incredibly healthy, with a dash of vanillin. Serena Sutcliffe, MW WA 1003 bts (sc)Estimates are per lot
