2007 Harlan Estate – A Benchmark Vintage in Napa Valley

The 2007 Harlan Estate stands among the most celebrated vintages ever produced from this iconic Oakville estate. Founded by Bill Harlan and crafted under the direction of winemaker Bob Levy and consultant Michel Rolland, Harlan Estate epitomizes the concept of a “First Growth of California.” The 2007 vintage showcases Napa Valley’s harmony of ripeness, balance, and structure, representing the pinnacle of collectible California Cult Wines.

Tasting Notes

The 2007 vintage reveals a multidimensional nose of blackcurrant, violet, and graphite, intertwined with nuances of dark chocolate, cedar, and smoke. On the palate, it is opulent yet precise, displaying impeccable balance between power and finesse. The tannins are silky and integrated, leading to a seamless, lingering finish that unfolds with mineral depth and savory spice.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

Located on the western hills of Oakville, Harlan Estate’s 240-acre property includes approximately 40 acres of meticulously farmed vines. The 2007 blend is composed primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, with small amounts of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot. Aged for 26 months in new French oak barrels, the wine reflects the estate’s precision and dedication to crafting profound, age-worthy Cabernet-based blends.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2007 Harlan Estate is recognized as one of the most collectible Napa Valley releases of the 21st century. Consistently trading at strong secondary-market values, it’s admired by collectors for its purity, longevity, and pedigree. With perfect and near-perfect critic scores, it exemplifies the craftsmanship and vision that make Harlan one of Napa’s most important estates. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Insights & Accolades

The 2007 vintage was defined by a long, temperate growing season with ideal ripening conditions. Harlan’s vineyards achieved extraordinary physiological balance, producing wines of depth, precision, and effortless grace.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The prodigious 2007 Harlan Estate reminds me of a hypothetical blend of the 2002 with a touch of the controversial 1997. Dense plum/purple-colored with sweet aromas of barbecue smoke, blueberries, blackberries, cassis, licorice, hot rocks and subtle oak, it is a splendidly opulent, pure wine with a skyscraper-like texture as well as stunningly deep fruit that expands gracefully across the palate. The finish lasts nearly a full minute. Because of its overwhelming richness and sweet tannins, this brilliant wine seems to be approachable now, but I suspect further nuances and complexity will emerge after 4-5 years in the bottle. This wine will still be going strong at age 25-30. Like the offerings from its sister estate, Bond, these Harlan Estate offerings are uncompromisingly brilliant examples of Napa viticulture and winemaking at its finest. Kudos to proprietor Bill Harlan. Run by Bill Harlan, Harlan Estate’s debut vintage was 1990. The second wine culled out from this extraordinary estate’s barrels is called The Maiden, with a production generally under 2,000 cases,. Yet it often represents 50% of the estate’s production given the Draconian selection process employed at Harlan. Reviewed by Robert M. Parker, Jr., December 2010. Drinking window: 2012-2040.

Vinous

The 2007 Harlan Estate is fabulous. Explosive and dense, with tremendous persistence, the 2007 has all of the opulence and raciness that makes the wines from this vintage so distinctive. Scents of tobacco, leather and mocha develop in the glass, but above all else, the 2007 is a wine of sumptuous richness. It will continue to deliver considerable pleasure over the next two decades or so. What a wine! Empting describes 2007 as a warm, but not excessively hot, year with a long growing season. The wines presented naturally high dry extracts. Because of that, Levy and Empting opted for macerations that were a bit longer than usual. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni, January 2017.
