A blue chip collection filled with top California cult and fine Burgundy. The collector began amassing Old World wines when living in Montreal and Toronto and expanded his appreciation for California wine when living in San Francisco. Starting his cellar in the late 1990's, the majority of the wines were purchased directly from the winery or estate and were stored in a temperature and humidity-controlled private cellar.
2002 Screaming Eagle Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley has following scores - Vinous 98 , Jeff Leve The Wine Cellar Insider 98, The Wine Advocate 97. 2002 Screaming Eagle Winery Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley has the score of 97+ from Robert Parker and the tasting note -Beautiful floral notes intermixed with creme de cassis, licorice and charcoal jump from the glass of this dense purple-colored 2002. Opulent, broad, full-bodied and more mature than I expected given how this wine showed in its youth, this deep, rich Cabernet Sauvignon is exceptional. However, in this vintage it has to take a back seat to a number of other cuvees. The final blend was 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot and 2% Cabernet Franc.
