Harlan Estate 2015 1.5L (Tissue Stained Label) Rhone beef drippings and wild thyme"Bottled in early 2018, the deep garnet purple colored 2015 Harlan Estate is a little closed, slowly unfurling to reveal black cherries, crme de cassis and plum pudding with nuances of potpourri, baking spices and tilled soil plus wafts of garrigue and wild sage. The palate is full bodied and concentrated with exquisitely ripe, fine grained tannins and fantastic poise and depth with a long, decadently fruited finish." Wine Advocate, RP100 (LPB),
