abstract:A screaming eagle is a tropical wave whose convective pattern has a strong resemblance to the head of an eagle. It is a tropical wave with active thunderstorm activity at its apex, which is sheared by either westerly winds aloft, or by strong easterly winds at the surface.
Andy Erickson, of ScreamingEagle winemaking fame, has been the consulting winemaker at Ovid and played an essential role in the winery and cellar design.
The vintner Jean Phillips has a permit that lets her make 8, 000 cases of wine at ScreamingEagle vineyard in California's Napa Valley, but she plans to produce no more than 500, which almost guarantees that her cabernet will remain one of the most sought-after wines in America.
