JAMES SUCKLING: „Mindlblowing nose with spearmint, cloves and blackberries. Floral, too. Full body with phenomenal detail featuring delicate but intense blackberry, espresso, toasted oak, caramel and dark chocolate. Cedar and sweet tobacco. Finesse all over. The wine of the vintage? Everything is there. Great energy. Best in 2018."

THE WINE CELLAR INSIDER: „With a pronounced nose of espresso bean, caramel, smoke, chocolate and black plums, the wine is soft, silky, elegant and balanced. This lacks the concentration found in the best years as expected. Better on the palate than the nose at the moment, if the oak integrates fully into the wine, this will deserve a better score. The elegant textures and balance, which are clearly evident, are the hallmarks of this wine. I can't say this is close to being worth the money, but I'm sure others think the same thing about wines I score much higher."

THE WINE ADVOCATE: „Made from a blend of 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest equal parts Merlot and Cabernet Franc, the 2011 Screaming Eagle Cabernet Sauvignon is a sexy, upfront, precociously styled wine exhibiting a dense ruby/purple color as well as lots of licorice, camphor, black currant jam, new oak and spice box characteristics. Dense, rich and impressive, the early drinking charm of the 2011 vintage gives it immediate appeal. It should keep for 10-15 years."
