2003 年的 Harlan Estate 擁有深不見底、像李子的紫色。香氣華麗，包括石墨、樟腦、黑醋栗、煙熏木材和一絲森林泥土的氣息。味道相近，口感飽滿，充滿光彩，層次複雜，餘韻持續超過 45 秒令人陶醉。適合在2018至2043年品飲。

The 2003 Harlan Estate has dense opaque plum/purple color that is accompanied by a sumptuous bouquet of graphite, camphor, creme de cassis, smoky barbecue wood and a hint of forest floor. Similar flavors hit the mouth with full-bodied splendor, a multidimensional mouthfeel and texture, and the sensational finish lasts more than 45 seconds. (Drinking window: 2018-2043)
