This exquisite blend showcases the artistry of Screaming Eagle, featuring a harmonious mix of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. Each sip unfolds with layers of dark fruit, including blackcurrant and blackberry, interwoven with notes of mocha, graphite, and a touch of sweet tobacco. The velvety tannins and balanced acidity create a seamless, lingering finish that leaves a lasting impression.

Producer Information

Produced in tiny quantities from a small vineyard in Napa’s Oakville appellation, the Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine regularly sells for upwards of $3000 a bottle and is America’s most expensive regularly produced wine. The vineyards were established by former real estate agent Jean Phillips in 1986, who subsequently set about selling fruit to local producers in Napa. After a few years, the decision was made to set up a winery, and the first vintage of Screaming Eagle was released in 1992. The highly unfluential US wine critic Robert Parker rated this first vintage at 99 points, and cult status was sealed. Since then, the 1997 and 2007 vintages both achieved the coveted 100-point rating from the famous wine critic. Sales are made direct from the winery through a mailing list which has been full since 2000. The waiting list to get on the “mailer”, as it is often known, is reputed to be several thousand names long. Screaming Eagle’s vineyard lies within the Oakville AVA in the central part of Napa Valley. The unmarked vineyard lies on the eastern side of the AVA, below the vineyards of Dalla Valle and Oakville Ranch in the foothills further east, and just north of Paraduxx in Yountville.
