Levy McClellan

Levy & McClellan is a Napa Valley micro-producer formed by winemaker Jeff McClellan and grower Bob Levy (former winemaker at Harlan Estate). The wines are produced from exceptional Napa hillside and benchland sites, with the Red blend and the Ampersand Cabernet Sauvignon the two primary offerings. The Red averages $263 per bottle across 56 lots (2010 vintage peak)—a significant price level for a boutique blend. The Ampersand Cabernet Sauvignon averages $124 across 54 lots (2011 peak). With a portfolio average of $218 and only 332 total lots, Levy & McClellan is a relatively scarce but consistently traded auction commodity. The pedigree of Bob Levy's Harlan Estate background establishes strong collector credibility; the wines are produced in tiny quantities and distributed through a mailing list, creating the scarcity that sustains secondary premiums.

Bob Levy co-founded Levy & McClellan after serving as winemaker at Harlan Estate, one of Napa's most prestigious cult properties; this lineage drives collector interest in the boutique project.

The Red blend averages $263 per bottle across 56 lots—the higher-priced of the two wines—with the 2010 vintage the most sought-after in the database.

The Ampersand Cabernet Sauvignon averages $124 across 54 lots; both wines are distributed exclusively through a mailing list, creating the scarcity premium that sustains secondary-market activity.

At $218 overall average across 332 lots, Levy & McClellan ranks among the most valuable boutique Napa producers on a per-bottle basis in this batch.

In the Glass

Hillside Napa Cabernet and red blend: dark cassis, graphite, iron, cedar, dried herbs, and concentrated dark fruit on a structured, powerful frame with mountain-influenced tannins. The Red blend shows layered complexity from multiple varietal components; Ampersand Cabernet is more focused, pure, and varietally direct. The Harlan pedigree is evident in the wines' ambition—dense, brooding, and designed for long-term cellaring of 15–25 years.
