2006 Scarecrow – Rutherford’s Cult Cabernet with Legendary Pedigree

The 2006 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon continues the legacy of one of Napa Valley’s most storied vineyards, originally planted in the 1940s by J.J. Cohn. Today, Scarecrow stands as one of the most sought-after California Cult Wines, admired for its rarity, vineyard pedigree, and exquisite craftsmanship. The 2006 vintage is a powerful yet graceful expression of Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon.

Tasting Notes

Concentrated aromas of blackberry, crème de cassis, and violets intertwine with hints of cedar, licorice, and tobacco leaf. On the palate, the 2006 vintage reveals layers of ripe dark fruit, mocha, and spice, framed by polished tannins and classic Rutherford dust minerality. The finish is long, structured, and built for decades of cellaring.

Winemaking & Vineyard Details

The wine is composed of **100% Cabernet Sauvignon** sourced from the historic J.J. Cohn Estate Vineyard in Rutherford. Fermented in small lots and aged for approximately **22 months in new French oak barrels**, the 2006 Scarecrow balances modern precision with old-vine complexity, offering a rare glimpse into Napa Valley’s viticultural heritage.

Investment & Collectibility

The 2006 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon is a prime example of why this cult label remains one of Napa Valley’s most collectible wines. Produced in extremely limited quantities and consistently praised by critics, it has earned a place among the elite investment wines of California. Perfect for your collection.

Vintage Specifics & Accolades

The 2006 Napa Valley vintage delivered a long, even growing season, producing wines of balance and concentration. Scarecrow excelled in this year, with wines showing depth, freshness, and exceptional aging potential.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Rating (93-96)Slightly softer than the 2005, more fruit-forward, and plumper is the 2006 Scarecrow, which of course is still in barrel. The wine has deep black currant fruit intermixed with loamy soil notes, some roasted herbs, smoke, and spice. The wine is supple-textured, with silky tannins and a plush, opulent mouthfeel. It should evolve for 15-20 years as well. Reviewed by Robert M. Parker, Jr., Issue date: December 28, 2007. Drinking window: 2007 - 2027.

Vinous

Good full ruby-red. Complex nose offers blackcurrant, raspberry, mocha, coffee and licorice; conveys a strong site character. Silky-sweet and creamy in the mouth, with dark fruit and bitter chocolate flavors given an almost magically light touch by high notes of minerals, mint and lavender. Quite subtle and juicy for a wine with nearly 15% alcohol. Finishes with very fine tannins and terrific lift and length. Reviewed by Stephen Tanzer, Issue date: May, 2009. Drinking window: N/A.
