      Reviews:

      • Wine Advocate: Scarecrow is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from two acres of old vines planted in 1945 by John Daniel and dry farmed. Very deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon comes sashaying out of the glass with tantalizing notions of violets, lavender, Black Forest cake, mulberries, tobacco leaf and fragrant earth with a core of warm cassis, kirsch, Chinese five spice, rose hip tea and cedar chest. The palate is full-bodied and super concentrated yet possesses great energy with vibrant red and black fruits and loads of mineral accents, framed by very ripe, super fine-grained tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing very long with the most incredible perfume. Hedonistically, undeniably and deliciously perfect.
      • Vinous: The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Scarecrow is another positively riveting wine from this benchmark estate and longtime winemaker Celia Welch. Powerful and explosive on the palate, with tremendous energy, the 2016 has so much to offer. A rush of graphite, smoke, leather and tobacco builds as this beautifully layered, nuanced Cabernet Sauvignon shows why Scarecrow is one of Napa Valley's very finest vineyard sites. Just bottled a few weeks before this tasting, the 2016 is shaping up to be a real jewel of a wine. Don't miss it!

      Producer Information

      Scarecrow Estate is a wine producer located in the Rutherford AVA in Napa Valley, California. The flagship estate wine, made from Cabernet Sauvignon, regularly receives glowing critic reviews, achieving a perfect 100-point score from Robert Parker for the 2007 vintage. In the early 1900s, Joseph Judson Cohn, chief of production at MGM, moved to Rutherford and purchased a 180-acre (72-hectare) property. In 1939 John Daniel Jr. took over the property that bordered Cohn's, home to the iconic Inglenook vineyard founded by Daniel's great uncle Gustave Niebaum. Daniel convinced JJ Cohn to plant 80 acres of Cabernet Sauvignon (32ha) on his land. This came with the promise that the former would purchase the grapes for the production of his Inglenook wines. On Cohn's death in 1996, the buildings of the estate came under the control of his grandson, Bret Lopez. He also took on 25 acres (10ha) of partially planted vineyard land, and 2 acres (0.8ha) of original 1945 Cabernet Sauvignon. Lopez decided to make wine under his own label, while continuing to sell grapes to other producers in the region. The wine was named for his grandfather's time at MGM, where he had worked on the film The Wizard of Oz. Lopez decided on Scarecrow as a symbol of life, American optimism and ultimately, agriculture. The first vintage was 2003. Scarecrow produce only two wines, one named for the estate and the other called M.Ètain. Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon is produced from grapes from the estate in Rutherford, from both hillside blocks and plots located on the plateau. It is made entirely from Cabernet Sauvignon and aged in 90 percent new French oak for 12 months. It is then returned to the tank for blending across plots before being returned to the oak to age for an additional 10 months. It is a rare and highly collectable wine – on average, only 500 cases are produced a year. M.Ètain is produced in much the same way, but without the additional barrel age. Its first vintage was 2008 and it is also made from 100-percent Cabernet Sauvignon from estate plots. It is fermented in small vats, aged in 90-percent new French oak for 16 months. The wine is then bottled and released without fining or filtering.
