Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 2008

Without fanfare, the 2008 Screaming Eagle from Screaming Eagle unfurls its intricate tapestry of complexities. Among the symphony of California's most lauded vintages, this rendition from Screaming Eagle manages to strike an individualistic chord of merit.

As it graces your cellar, the 2008 Screaming Eagle from Napa Valley gleams like a rare gem in your portfolio of fine wines from the USA. A carefully orchestrated equilibrium of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc varietals provides an elixir which masterfully blends power with finesse.

Showcasing a luscious panache and intensity peculiar to that memorable growing year, yet remarkably balanced by an infectious freshness. With every swirl of your glass, provocative whispers of black currant, boysenberry, and chocolatey espresso beans encapsulate the senses.

Critical Acclaim

95 The Wine Advocate

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. Next to the other wines in this tasting, the 2008 is a bit burly. The mind-bending finesse of the best vintages is missing. Anticipated maturity: 2015-2028.
