Details

Screaming Eagle 2007 is an exceptional wine that leaves a lasting impression. Its palate is rich and opulent, showcasing the perfect balance between power and finesse. The nose is incredibly expressive, with intense aromas of dark fruits, such as blackberries, cassis, and ripe plums, complemented by hints of tobacco, cedar, and baking spices. On the palate, the wine envelops the senses with its velvety texture and layers of flavors. Ripe black fruits mingle with notes of chocolate, vanilla, and a touch of espresso, creating a luscious and complex taste profile. The finish is remarkably long and satisfying, with the wine's silky tannins and vibrant acidity leaving a lasting impression. Visually, the wine displays a deep, almost opaque color that hints at its depth and concentration. Screaming Eagle 2007 is a true masterpiece, exemplifying the height of quality and craftsmanship that has made it one of the most sought-after wines in the world.


Robert Parker - 100 Points

"Medium to deep garnet colored, the 2007 Screaming Eagle opens with a dazzlingly beautiful fragrance of red roses, violets and lavender over a core of red currant jelly, kirsch, cassis and black raspberry layers plus blueberry preserves and stewed tea accents and a waft of cigar box. Medium to full-bodied, the tannins are firm yet wonderfully plush with a great intensity of perfumed red and blue fruits that are at once intense and ethereal, finishing on a lingering mineral note. This 2007 truly shows the personality of Screaming Eagle at its best. It is approachable now, still possessing plenty of primary fruit with those tertiary layers beginning to unfurl and therefore it cannot fail to impress even at this youthful stage. However, give it another 5-7 years to really get the full dividends of careful cellaring."


Antonio Galloni - 96 Points

"(14.8% alcohol): Dark medium ruby. Captivating violet lift to the aromas of blackberry, cassis and minerals. Wonderfully fine-grained, lightly medicinal wine with terrific inner-mouth definition and energy. The flavors of dark berries, iron and minerals are still tightly coiled yet dance on the palate. This impeccably balanced wine finishes with suave, refined tannins and outstanding mounting length. Really stains the palate and reverberates in the retronasal passages."
