2014 | Screaming Eagle | Cabernet Sauvignon OWC of 3 bottles

Extremely perfumed with blackberries, currants and flower. Rose petals, too. Seductive. Medium to full body. It grows on the palate with an extremely long finish that goes on for minutes. The tannins are ultra-fine and polished.

Reviews:

• Decanter: A perfumed bouquet of crushed cassis, violet, woodsmoke and incipient truffle is the prelude to a rich, layered and superbly pure wine with fine-grained tannins and juicy acidity. Lovely reserve, depth and tension at the core.

• Jeb Dunnuck: The 2014 Screaming Eagle comes in behind the 2012 and 2013, yet is nevertheless a brilliant wine that holds true to the vintage and the style of the estate. Made from 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 16% Merlot, and the rest Cabernet Franc, it offers up gorgeous notes of crème de cassis, white chocolate, spice, and graphite. Full-bodied and powerful, yet always light on its feet and seamless, it has the hallmark elegance of this estate as well as awesome purity of fruit and building tannin.
