Description
Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 2012Bottle (3)
The Visionary’s Cellar. This remarkable collection of California Blue Chip icons, stellar Bordeaux and more is the result of decades on coveted mailing lists and relationships carefully cultivated over more than twenty years. The consignor spared no expense in creating two extraordinary cellars: one, a showpiece of elegant lighting and design for entertaining; the other, an equally meticulous reserve for overflow of the highest caliber. Hundred Acre, Harlan Estate, Dana, Colgin—this is a titanic lineup of treasures for the discerning collector. As our generous consignor embarks on a new chapter in retirement, the fruits of his passion are now offered to our bidders. Bid with confidence—and with gusto.
"This shows a very compact palate with superb complexity and precision with aromas and flavors ranging from blackberries and black truffles to black tea and wet earth. It’s full-bodied and finely grained with a light, woody complexity underneath it all. Extremely long and persistent on the palate." (100 pts. James Suckling, July 2019)
"The perfect 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon Screaming Eagle is composed of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Merlot and 4% Cabernet Franc. Made in the classic, iconic Screaming Eagle style that the original proprietress, Jean Philipps, first showcased in the early 1990s, before the winery was sold to Stan Kroenke, the inky/purple-colored, seamless 2012 possesses an extraordinary set of aromatics consisting of pure blackcurrant liqueur, licorice, acacia flowers, graphite and a subtle hint of new oak. Full-bodied, opulent and voluptuous, this profound wine is as prodigious as I thought it would be last year when tasted from barrel. It should age effortlessly for 20 or more years." (100 pts. Robert Parker, Wine Advocate, Oct. 2014)
"The 2012 Screaming Eagle is sensational. Still quite deep and intense, the 2012 is revealing itself to be a long-distance runner. Scents of blackberry, grilled herbs, graphite, lavender and mocha are enticing, yet the 2012 remains very young. Imposing tannins and bright, vibrant acids from a year that cooled down at the end of the growing season remain prominent. Screaming Eagle is a rare 2012 that I would continue to cellar, as it is uncharacteristically potent. The best is yet to come." (98+ pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2024)
