Screaming Eagle 1999
Screaming Eagle 1999 is a dry, very full-bodied red from Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley, United States), in the full, structured reds style. Tannins are very firm and acidity fresh; oak influence is noticeable. Good with steak, lamb, venison, cheese board. Listed at £3350.00 by Hedonism Wines, who say it is out of stock; that is the last price, not an offer.

Screaming Eagle is perhaps the most famous California Cult winery of all time and produces one of the most sought-after wines in the world. Sourced from a small, 57-acre vineyard in Oakville, Napa, production of this exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon-based blend is supremely limited and older vintages are increasingly rare. The 1999 is a sensational release of opulence, richness and remarkable purity of fruit. Despite its full-bodied and decadent nature, it is never overblown and exhibits an incredible level of precision. Only 500 cases were produced.
