Pale and pink with glinting clarity, this rosé is aromatic with complex notes of exotic fruits, peach, orange zest, and a hint of jasmine. The palate is dry and beautifully balanced with citrus and fantastic flavor. The finish is fresh and mouthwatering. Enjoy it on its own, or with a delicious goat cheese salad or tuna tartare.

This is very polished and pretty with dark fruit and hints of cedar and vanilla. It’s medium-bodied with well-integrated tannins and a vivid finish. 100% tempranillo. Enjoyable now, but can improve in the bottle.

Intense garnet color, the nose expresses hints of ripe fruit, then nuances of tobacco, anise and cloves. In the mouth it is deep, with an elegant and powerful tannic texture and a long persistence.
What a back-to-back pair of vintages! I assume one would have to go back to 2002 and 2001 to find two Screaming Eagles this compelling. The 2013 appears set for 25-30 years of longevity. There is something magical about this Oakville parcel on the valley floor just under the looming hillsides of such wineries as Phelps, Bacchus and Dalla Valle's Maya, and across the street from the Rudd Estate, Plumpjack, etc.
Very pretty aromas of flowers and flower petal with hints of perfume follow through to a medium body, round yet fine tannins and a flavorful finish.
The 2020 Screaming Eagle is one of the great surprises of the year. Energetic and vibrant in the glass, the 2020 offers a bit more energy than most readers are likely used to. All the elements are so well balanced. Dark blue/purplish fruit, lavender, menthol, spice, leather and a soft touch of all fill out the layers effortlessly. In 2020 Screaming Eagle is not as immediately alluring as it so often is, so a measure of patience is warranted.

Clos de la Vieille Eglise, the tiny property estate of Jean-Louis and Benoît Trocard, has an opulent bouquet with layers of ripe cassis and blueberry fruit, just showing a little more alcohol than its Pomerol peers. The palate is ripe and generous on the entry. I was expecting it to spill over into something overdone... but no. It is actually very elegant and harmonious with great depth and very fine persistence.
