Winemaker Celia Welch writes of the 2008 Scarecrow:

“The wine’s aromas show off the dry, warm vintage and small crop beautifully. Intense ripe
berries, dark chocolate, a whiff of toasty oak, and some deeper tones of dark vanilla, sweet
earth, and roasted pecans swirl to fill the glass, changing and evolving with time. On the
palate, the dark berries are joined with a slightly redder, fresher force of bing cherries and a
touch of toasted anise seed. Soft and rich, this full-bodied wine lingers with all of its flavors
dancing as the intensity of the finish slowly fades.

This 100% Cabernet Sauvignon was harvested from 8 separate blocks of vines, all a part of
the J.J. Cohn Estate in Rutherford, Napa Valley, between September 10 and October 1,
2008. The oldest vines were fermented in an open-top tank and punched down three times
per day, while other lots were fermented using pumpovers and cap irrigations three times
per day. The wines were transferred into small French oak barrels (100% new) directly after
pressing, and were kept separate after the first year. In early summer 2009 the separate lots were carefully combined, and spent the following 11 months as a final blend in barrels.

The finished wine was bottled without fining or filtration in late July, 2010.”
