Screaming Eagle Second Flight Oakville Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

Doc Jay

Don't be stupid enough to open with a scalpel and close with a sledgehammer. Too young. Too alcohol.

fun to taste the "second flight" - old block merlot and franc blend. indian spice on nose, plush on palate.

"Odedi"

Deep purple in color with a short purple rim. Strong and beautiful nose of blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, oak, licorice, earth, spices, leather, smoke, alcohol, vanilla, vegetables, cloves, coffee, chocolates, tobacco, beef jerky and peppercorn Full bodied and buttery with velvety, soft mouthfeel and long legs. Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, smoke, vanilla, cedar, leather, liquorice, light vegetables, coffee, chocolates, wood, tobacco, herbs, spices and peppercorn. Long finish with firm tannins and black pepper. What a great Napa red this is. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food, like a big piece of steak. Very complex and interesting, with multiple layers. Round and velvety, but still young. This is a gorgeous wine. Delicious. 14.9% alcohol by volume.

10' Extraordinarily complexed. It rivaled the Harbison in that respect. Need to revisit this again.

Ron R

Extravagant nose of burnt caramel, jam compote and barrel toast. Blackberries, blueberries, and hints of charcoal. Finishes with moderately tart cherries, in a balanced way. This is truly soaring.

Screaming!

10' Was simply a baby. 3/5 years it's going to be great.
