2010 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

98 Points

Tuesday, August 4, 2020 - Decanted over cocktails. As usual with Scarecrow, this showed a magical combination of intensity and lightness on the palate with pure dark berry liqueur, dancing acid, firm tannins, and an evolution in the mouth with each sip. With air the tannins got a bit more grippy and it didn't last long enough to see what emerged on the other side. The outdoor setting on a warm Seattle summer evening may not have been ideal for such a fine wine but hey, you never know which bottle is going to be your last.

I totally agree you just dont want to stop by a neighbors house get stuck drinking a glass of jug wine and keel over. I have one bottle that my brother in law gave me. I never realized he was in their club perhaps I should go up to Ct. and visit him more often. Anyway I think I will open in for my wifes birthday next month. Thank you again.
