Frequently Asked Questions
- Why is Screaming Eagle so expensive?
- The extreme scarcity caused by tiny production volumes (roughly 400-850 cases per year) combined with consistently top critical acclaim, starting with a 99-point score for the 1992 debut vintage, drives its extraordinary market value.
- How can I purchase Screaming Eagle wine?
- Direct purchase is only possible through the winery's exclusive, invitation-only mailing list, which has a very long waiting period; the winery does not offer public tastings or tours.
- Who founded Screaming Eagle and when?
- Former real estate agent Jean Phillips purchased the 57-acre Oakville vineyard in 1986 and released the debut 1992 vintage, made with winemaker Heidi Barrett, in 1995.
- Does Screaming Eagle pair well with Japanese cuisine?
- Its refined structure and complex tannins pair exceptionally well with high-end Wagyu beef or rich, umami-driven dishes like charcoal-grilled unagi.
