Cheers! from the Duke of Bourbon

Heidi Barrett, the preeminent winemaker at Screaming Eagle and La Sirena, had long had the vision of creating a Pomerol-style Merlot/Cabernet Franc blend from the best sources of Napa Valley fruit. That dream became a reality with the introduction of the 2002 vintage of Amuse Bouche. This magnificent blend of Merlot and Cabernet Franc is truly a wine to rival its famous counterparts from across the Atlantic, the giants of Pomerol, Petrus and Chateau Le Pin, not to mention setting an exceptionally high bar for its California challengers. The 2005 vintage is perhaps their best yet - a super-opulent, dense and well-balanced wine.

The Rob Report named Amuse Bouche one of the top wines of the world, featuring it on last November's cover along with Masseto, Grange and Chateau Pichon Lalande.

Time magazine has called Heidi the "wine diva of Napa" and referred to her as "one of the world's top winemakers." She has several so-called "perfect" wines to her credit, having scored 100 points on Parker's 100-point scale. (The '92 and '93 Maya and the '92 and '97 Screaming Eagle immediately come to mind.)

The Duke has been pleased to offer her previous vintages of the sensational Amuse Bouche to our loyal customers and we are even more thrilled to be able to offer the stunning 2005 vintage in magnum to you on future.

The 2005 harvest was distinguished by long hang time on the vines. The wine has completed fermentation and is now ageing gracefully in French oak. According to Heidi, the 2005 harvest delivered some of the most 'lush fruit' she has ever worked with. This is a wine of both power and elegance. In other words, WOW!!

The Duke now has the very rare and limited magnums available in custom wooden boxes at a futures price of $650.00 each. We expect the wine to be available in early October, 2007.

Don't miss out on this scarce Napa Valley cult wine!
