Produced in tiny quantities from a small vineyard in Napa's Oakville appellation, the Cabernet Sauvignon-based wine regularly sells for upwards of $3000 plus a bottle and is America's most expensive regularly produced wine.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eJean Phillips established the vineyards in 1986, and set about selling fruit to local producers in Napa. After a few years, the decision was made to set up a winery, and the first vintage of Screaming Eagle was released in 1992. Robert Parker rated this first vintage at 99 points, and cult status was sealed – since then, the 1997 and 2007 vintages have achieved the coveted 100-point rating from the famous wine critic. Sales are done from the winery through a mailing list, which has been full since 2000 – and there is a waiting list several thousand names long.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eScreaming Eagle's vineyard lies within the Oakville AVA in the southern part of Napa Valley. It is planted mainly to Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot and Cabernet Franc, and a small plot of Sauvignon Blanc. Screaming Eagle's second wine, Second Flight, is made from the vineyard's younger vines, and a white wine, the Screaming Eagle Sauvignon Blanc, was introduced in 2012. Although sold initially for $250 a bottle in 2012, this wine quickly reached astronomical prices on the secondary market as well, up to 10 times the release price.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn 2006, Screaming Eagle was famously sold to Stanley Kroenke and Charles Banks for an undisclosed sum, rumored to be upwards of $30 million.

Dark, brooding and closed in on itself, the 2016 is going to need a number of years to be at its very best, but it is incredibly beguiling today. Plum, black cherry, lavender, blood orange menthol, and a host of more mineral-driven notes punctuate this super-expressive wine. This is a decidedly tannic and powerful edition of The Flight. I can't wait to see how it ages. Bottled just six weeks before this tasting, the 2016 appears to have a very bright future. Time in the glass brings out some of the softer edges that will almost surely emerge with cellaring. The Flight is built on a core of older Merlot vines from the southeast corner of the estate. It is an absolutely riveting wine from Screaming Eagle.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; height: 215.532px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"first odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eVarietal\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eCabernet Sauvignon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eVintage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003e2016\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eRating\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003e98 AG - 97+ RP\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eBottle Size\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003e750 ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eBottle Quantity\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003e3 x 750ml\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eCountry\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eUSA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eRegion\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eCalifornia\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eLocation\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eNorth Coast\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eProducer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eScreaming Eagle\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"even\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eColor\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eRed\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"last odd\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"width: 43.5818%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"label\"\u003eWine Type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 53.4985%; height: 19.5938px;\" class=\"data last\"\u003eTable\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e","brand":"WS WEB","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44749545046147,"sku":"SEFLIGHT2016OWC3","price":3250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/9864\/7939\/files\/2016-screaming-eagle-the-flight-cabernet-owc-3-x-750ml-301.webp?v=1770284396","url":"https:\/\/cultwine.com\/ja\/products\/2016-screaming-eagle-the-flight-cabernet-owc-3-x-750ml-1","provider":"CultWine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
