Harlan, The Maiden 2007, 750ml

The Maiden: The Brilliant Second Selection from Harlan Estate

The 2007 Harlan Estate 'The Maiden' represents the highest-quality second selection from one of Napa Valley's most legendary "Cult Cab" producers. The renowned 2007 vintage yielded wines of tremendous opulence and voluptuous texture, and critics considered this Maiden to be "perhaps the finest second wine yet made here" (Robert Parker). With 18 years of age and impeccable storage, this bottle is entering its prime drinking window.

This wine is drinking beautifully now, showcasing the spectacular evolution of top-tier Napa Cabernet. The bouquet is complex and intoxicating, offering aromas of sweet tobacco leaf, fruitcake, crème de cassis, and black currant that reflect its age and quality. On the palate, it is round, opulent, and voluptuously textured with integrated tannins, finishing long, persistent, and full-bodied. It delivers the signature quality and complexity of its "big sister," the Harlan Estate flagship.
