Wine Maker’s Notes:

"Deep garnet in color from the ripe 2018 vintage, with open aromas of lush fruit – plum, blackberry, and cherry, and notes of cedar, vanilla, and white pepper. Across the palate it’s quite seamless and silky, rich and concentrated. The fruit flavors are bold and vibrant. Mouth-filling with smooth tannins, great texture and a long delicious finish. A beautiful wine from an excellent vintage – complexity and elegance abound in this work of winemaking art. Delicious and approachable upon release, we expect it will be an age-worthy addition to your cellar as well."

Description:

“The 2018 La Sirena Studio Series is a red blend of 48% Syrah, 47% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Petite Sirah and 2% Cabernet Franc. This wine is deep ruby in color and nearly opaque; the bouquet is darkly fruited including cherry and plum along with attractive darker spices including a nuance of pipe tobacco and white pepper. It is layered and well-concentrated showing primarily darker fruits. The finish is savory, with notes of old cedar box, dried tobacco leaf and lingers with grainy, textured but seamlessly integrated tannins along with a slight herbal note. Despite only 2% Cabernet Franc in this blend, its contribution is noticeable, albeit more subtly. The image for this wine changes every year and is also based on a piece of art that Heidi painted.”
