Estimate
An amazing wine, dark and rich with a supple, polished texture. Deeply concentrated,with a great range of flavors, offering tiers of blackberry, black cherry, wild berry and plum...
Sweet, deep black currant fruit, espresso, licorice, graphite, and earth aromas emerge from the dense, ruby/purple-colored 2002 The Maiden, which cascades over the palate without a hard edge.
... The flavors are just enormous, all about chocolate fudge, crème de cassis and cherry cola, yet the wine is dry and crisp. There’s something sensual and sexy about this claret, a completely nourishing wine that provides endless pleasure.
Superripe aromas of sweet, sappy berries; not roasted. Lush, sweet and sappy, with compelling freshness and depth of sappy fruit. Finishes with big, chewy, tongue-dusting tannins and superb lingering sweetness of dark berry fruit.
This is a second label of Harlan Estate
