Sixth Annual Pebble Beach Food & Wine :A Culinary Extravaganza

The single most memorable wine event of the weekend for me, however, was a complete vertical tasting of California cult Cabernet Scarecrow, led by the proprietor, Bret Lopez and winemaker Celia Welch. The wines, produced from a vineyard that contains vines dating back to 1945, [some of ] the oldest plantings of Cabernet Sauvignon in Napa, were absolutely stunning. They displayed purity, balance and complexity.
