Screaming nose: seaspray, garbage juice, slight plasticity, restrained oak — 10 years ago
A fascinating and little-known brand owned by Kenzo Tsujimoto, who purchased 3,800 acres along the slopes of Mt. George in the late 1980s. Kenzo Estate wines are the result of a collaboration between winemaker Heidi Barrett of Screaming Eagle and legendary viticulturalist David Abreu, the wines are almost exclusively exported to Japan, and they sport an impressive price tag. This half bottle of 2013 Asatsuyu Sauvignon Blanc sells for a mere $95.00, if you can find it. Nuanced aromas of guava, underripe pineapple and peach pit give way to an attack that is surprisingly round and full. For me, the most intriguing aspect of this wine is how much it narrows it's focus at the finish, one that is interlaced with classic Sauvignon Blanc herbaceousness and chalky minerality. — 10 years ago
Screaming Eagle vs Jonata ?? In a few years maybe - this wine is a great expression of the terroir at their perfect ranch - awesome with cheese, meats and some roasted fruit #jonata #screamingeagle — 11 years ago
Carmenere has quickly become one of our favorites and 2009 would have more body but this 2012 is very good. — 11 years ago
Enjoying the fruits of our sister winery.
Dry, but with lots of botrytis. Kind of weird because I expected it to have a bit of RS after just smelling it. Citrus/lime/zest, spice/ginger/saffron, honey, stone fruit/peach/something, saline/chalky/mineral. Thick/glycerol texture, but not really weighty or dense. Actually kind of fresh even with the botrytis because it's got screaming acid. — 9 years ago

A bit closed at first. Decanted and this wine was screaming. Great time to open your 03s — 10 years ago
From the famed Prichard Hill estate vineyard, this 100% Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon is a cult wine, rubbing shoulders with Screaming Eagle, Harlan and Colgin. The nose is typical of Napa Cab, with rich aromas of steeped blackberries, cassis, saddle leather, spice box and carmelized brown sugar. On the palate, it's silky, sexy and nicely balanced. There is a lovely, polished interplay of fine tannins and glycerol, along with darker notes of saddle leather, cedar, and espresso beans. Medium plus finish. — 10 years ago

Interesting proprietary blend from Jonata, sister vineyard of Screaming Eagle.. Predominantly Syrah with four Bordeaux varietals, Sangiovese and Viognier. Lots of pepper, rich fruit, timber and asphalt on the nose. Extracted dark fruit and baking spices on the palette. Little resemblance to other central coast wines. Only gripe is the bitterness on the finish -- maybe this will fade in time? Still a solid effort in a great vintage. — 9 years ago
