“CLASSIC 98 – 99” RATING (pre-release tasting 1/20/2010):
CULT WINEMAKER: IF you've ever dreamt of tasting cult Cabernet such as Scarecrow ($500/bottle) from famed 'cult' Cabernet winemaker Celia Masyczek, this is your lucky (limited) opportunity because this wine is still totally undiscovered and a relative steal under $90 but only 500 cases produced so order now!
"Wow, This is a near-perfect wine and a candidate for undiscovered boutique Cabernet of the vintage 2007. This remarkably powerful, multi-layered and sumptuously rich Cabernet could very well age into a perfect 100 point experience over the next 5 – 7 years…but today the silky smooth, bold tannins are already perfectly integrated with succulent dark fruit, holiday spices, crème de cassis a plethora of toffee plus hints of creamy vanilla oak and mocha on the finish that lasts a full 60 seconds+! Savor this nectar tonight after decanting at least an hour and will provide guaranteed thrill until 2018+" - The Wine Insiders
WINEMAKER TASTING NOTES: "Spiced plums, dark juicy berries, and Bing cherry dominate the nose on this very intensely aromatic Cabernet, with vanilla, toasty oak, warm spice tones (cinnamon, nutmeg) and a touch of mocha adding depth and ripeness to the first impression. Palate-wise, the entry is full-bodied and silky in texture, with fruit flavors echoing the aromas. Soft acidity adds a fresh note to the fruit flavors, while the lingering impression is of warm summer berries with a hint of caramel."
