        Reviews:

        • James Suckling: Lots of berry and chocolate character introduces a full body, soft and velvety tannins and a flavorful finish. Sold core of ripe fruit and tannins here. Should prove to be very exciting with some bottle age.
        • Vinous: The 2012 Ampersand is gorgeous. Supple, rich and inviting, the 2012 possesses striking depth and textural richness. Dark cherry, plum, spice, leather and menthol notes abound in this pliant, supple second wine from Levy & McClellan. Hints of gravel, graphite and smoke add further nuance. Even with all of its intensity, the 2012 retains a good bit of freshness.

        Producer Information

        Bob Levy is the winemaker for Harlan Estate, and his wife is the winemaker for the Sloan Estate. Both of them have made wines that have scored perfect 100 point ratings. They bought a 6 acre lot in the Diamond Mountain area, and the case production for their 1st and 2nd vintages is 400 cases or less. Robert Parker gave their 1st vintage, the 2004 vintage a rating of 96-98 points, and their 2005 vintage a rating of 95-97 points. What a great way to start off. Their wines look to have excellent cellaring life. Their maximum estimated case production, given their current vineyard of 6 acres is around 500-600 cases at best. This is less then half the production of Harlan and about the same as Screaming Eagle. On average, Levy & McClellans case production will be less then that of Screaming Eagle. As of right now, there is no waiting list to get into Levy & McClellan. But, I will say this right now, given the great history of these 2 great winemakers, it will not take long for their list to fill up and a very long waiting list to form.
