WINEMAKER NOTES
2013 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon – Rutherford Cult Cabernet
The 2013 Scarecrow Cabernet Sauvignon reflects one of Napa Valley’s most sought-after vineyard sources and one of its most tightly allocated producers. Grown in Rutherford on historic vines, Scarecrow has established a reputation for producing Cabernet Sauvignon defined by depth, precision, and consistency. The 2013 vintage, widely regarded as a benchmark year in Napa Valley, brings structure and clarity to this cult bottling.
Tasting Notes
The nose opens with aromas of blackcurrant, dark cherry, graphite, and subtle floral notes. On the palate, the wine is layered and powerful, delivering concentrated dark fruit supported by finely grained tannins. Notes of cocoa, cedar, and crushed stone develop through the mid-palate, leading to a long, seamless finish marked by balance and persistent depth.
Winemaking & Vineyard Details
Produced primarily from Cabernet Sauvignon grown in Rutherford’s well-drained alluvial soils, the wine is crafted through careful lot selection and small-batch fermentation. Aging in French oak barrels refines structure and integrates aromatic complexity. The 2013 growing season provided near-ideal conditions, allowing for even ripening and concentrated fruit development.
Investment & Collectibility
Scarecrow remains one of Napa Valley’s most recognized cult Cabernet producers, with limited production driving sustained global demand. The 2013 vintage is particularly valued for its structure and aging potential, reinforcing its position among collectors focused on top-tier Napa Valley wines.
Vintage Insights & Accolades
The 2013 Napa Valley vintage is considered one of the strongest in recent decades, producing wines of concentration, balance, and long-term potential. In Rutherford, these conditions yielded Cabernet Sauvignon of notable depth and precision.
