Mission Codename Poseidon
Collectors! Anyone who wants a taste of “pure class”, please put your Tesla on autopilot or find the nearest rest stop. Make your kids late to summer camp. Do whatever it takes to lock this down.
Enter “The First Lady of Wine” (© Robert Parker) with her archetype Cabernet, a 96-point stunner, for an unprecedented discount. And if you’re a die-hard collector, make sure you read through the end, because we have a surprise for you.
It “screams of high-quality Cabernet” according to Jeb Dunnuck - one whose full-body, “flawless balance” and “sexy, approachable style” amount to two words: “pure class.”
Superstar winemaker, part-time swashbuckler, occasional mermaid, and all-around amazing human being Heidi Peterson Barrett is well known for putting Screaming Eagle on the map. She earned her street cred fashioning 14 spectacular vintages there, along with plenty of other smash hits at Dalla Valle, Grace Family, Jones Family, Vineyard 29, Amuse Bouche, Revana, David Arthur, Kenzo Estate, Paradigm… and that’s not even the complete list!
But La Sirena is her baby.
And THIS is her quintessential Cabernet. Her very own La Sirena. Powerful, polished, and densely packed with black and blue fruit. Layers of blueberry, cassis, graphite, black plum and toasty oak unravel into a seemingly endless finish. Compared to other gems under her wing, this is by far the best money you’ll spend on a high-end Napa Cab, period, no questions asked. And we have the lowest price you’ll find anywhere.
“Cabernet lovers will recognize the winemaking style which is similar in blend profile to the famous and much loved Screaming Eagle wines I made previously.” - Heidi Peterson Barrett
As if that’s not enough to celebrate, Heidi has graciously agreed to personally sign a few bottles! If you order 6 or more of this glorious wine, one will be autographed by her. We really cannot think of a better centerpiece for your cellar.
96 Points – Jeb Dunnuck
“Pure class, the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon from Sirena is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon sourced mostly from Calistoga and Pritchard Hill fruit. It offers a deep purple hue as well as stunning notes of blueberries, new saddle leather, lead pencil shavings, tobacco, and graphite. It just screams of high-quality Cabernet and is full-bodied, has sweet tannins, flawless balance, and the sexy, approachable style of the 2014 vintage front and center. It’s stunning today yet will cruise for another two decades. Drink 2019-2039.”
