Details

The Screaming Eagle 2016 is a wine of extraordinary quality and refinement, exemplifying the pinnacle of Napa Valley winemaking. On the palate, it delivers an exquisite symphony of flavors that dance gracefully across the senses. Ripe blackberries, cassis, and dark cherries mingle with notes of mocha, graphite, and cedar, creating a complex and layered profile. The palate is rich and velvety, with velvety tannins that add structure and depth. The nose is equally captivating, with aromas of black fruits, violet, hints of vanilla, and a subtle touch of baking spices. The finish is long and lingering, leaving a lasting impression of dark fruit, chocolate, and a touch of espresso. With its deep, intense ruby color, the Screaming Eagle 2016 is a true masterpiece, showcasing the artistry and precision of this iconic estate.


Robert Parker - 100 Points

"The 2016 Screaming Eagle is, as usual, mainly Cabernet Sauvignon with a little Merlot and Cabernet Franc. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps from the glass with bright, exuberant blackberries, kirsch and warm blackcurrants scents plus touches of lavender, roses, tilled black loam, wild sage and dark chocolate with wafts of yeast extract, underbrush and crushed rocks. Medium to full-bodied, firm and fine grained, with amazing freshness, it is layered with crunchy black and red fruits, sparked by floral and mineral notions and finishing with epic length and depth."


Antonio Galloni - 100 Points

"The 2016 Screaming Eagle is a positively stunning wine. An intense bouquet gives way to a wine of explosive energy and huge textural depth. Graphite, crushed rocks, menthol, sage and dark spice open up gradually in this reticent, brooding Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon. The 2016 is a towering, statuesque wine of the very highest level. That is the good news. The slightly less good news is that it will need a number of years in bottle to be at its very best. I wouldn't dream of touching a bottle anytime soon. The 2016 literally does scream, with tons of varietal Cabernet aromatics, flavors and structural drive. In a word: magnificent!"
