Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
owc
Bottle (3)

The Kallisti Collection: This powerhouse consignment hails from a legendary NYC industry insider. This is a deeply pedigreed cellar with many bottles bought on release and stored since in a temperature-controlled Tribeca wine cellar. A top-tier offering with impeccable provenance.

"The 2008 Screaming Eagle is a model of elegance. Endless layers of sweet, perfumed fruit caress the palate in this captivating, utterly seductive wine. The finesse and silkiness of the tannin is something that is truly unique among the world's great wines. If Grand Cru Burgundy were made in Napa Valley, it would taste like Screaming Eagle. A delicate, classy finish lets the sheer purity of the fruit come through beautifully here." (97 pts. Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec. 2011)

"The estate’s 2008 Cabernet Sauvignon bursts from the glass with considerable richness and pure depth. The spring frosts lowered yields noticeably resulting in a wine that is a bit darker and heavier than is the norm. The rest of the vintage was on the warmer side, which gave the wine much of its ripeness and body. Mocha, espresso, licorice and sweet spices all wrap around the palate." (95 pts. Antonio Galloni, Wine Advocate, Dec. 2012)

"This has a wonderful balance to it. It shows intense aromas of flowers and dark fruits with hints of incense and sandalwood. Changes all the time. Then goes to currants and flowers. Full and firm with a wonderful core of silky tannins that are polished and beautiful. Dark chocolate, vanilla bean, and dark fruit. Solid and firm. You could easy drink this but it has structure for aging as well. 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Caberent Franc and 5% Merlot." (97 pts. James Suckling, June 2011)
