Details

The Screaming Eagle 2020 The Flight is a wine of exceptional quality and elegance. On the palate, it presents a symphony of flavors, with layers of blackberries, cassis, and ripe plum intermingling with nuances of dark chocolate, espresso, and exotic spices. The wine's texture is velvety-smooth, enveloping the senses with its richness and depth. The nose is equally captivating, with an intoxicating bouquet of black fruits, violets, and hints of cedar and tobacco, all wrapped in a delicate veil of toasty oak. The finish is long and satisfying, leaving a lingering impression of grace and finesse. With its deep, captivating color, the Screaming Eagle 2020 The Flight is a true masterpiece that showcases the artistry and dedication of this iconic winery.


Antonio Galloni - 94 Points

"The 2020 The Flight is classy and polished from the very first taste. Aromatic and understated, the 2020 offers a distinct feeling of classicism in its mid-weight structure. Crushed flowers, herbs and spice lead into a core of red/purplish fruit. The 2020 is a seriously impressive wine. Readers should expect a more lifted, restrained style than is the norm."

I was totally blown away by the wines I tasted at Screaming Eagle. Winemaker Nick Gislason and his team nailed the vintage. The 2020s are a bit lighter than usual, with pretty aromatics and fine balance. Gislason opted for shorter fermentations and used less new oak in the cellar, a measured approach that helped get the best out of this very difficult vintage.
