We love being able to offer a selection of some of our past vintages. One of the coolest things about wine is how it evolves over time - it can be a time capsule, or even a kind of time machine! A bottle can transport you across the years in a way that few other things can. We're proud of the age-ability of our wines, and proud to be able to offer these special bottles to our customers. If you're seeking a particular vintage or wine not shown here, we might be able to help. Please inquire - contact@lasirenawine.com or 707-483-9181.

The first vintage of Heidi's homage to the Hermitage region of the Rhone, this Barrett Syrah-based blend is a stunning combination of old world style and Napa Valley power. Aging tremendously well, Rhone and Syrah lovers are going to absolutely adore this aged-to-perfection bottle of mermaid majesty. Le Barrettage was produced from 2009-2014.
The second vintage produced of Barrett & Barrett Cab. It presents dense black fruit up front, with some earthiness and Bordeaux-like character too. The aromas have an interesting masculine-feminine push and pull – there is earth and leather, gunpowder tea and a touch of black olive, but also graceful floral and spice notes too. A very complex wine that will present different sides of its character to each person who tastes it. On the palate there is some tannin and grip, yet it is still rich and silky.
Heidi Barrett has made many of the Napa Valley’s most sought-after and cult classic wines. Bo Barrett has had an outstanding record of excellence since taking over as winemaker at Chateau Montelena in 1982. Married for over 27 years, Heidi and Bo have each well established their own individual winemaking track records. Heidi’s focus on perfect balance and Bo’s on classic styling are quite synergistic.
Barrett and Barrett, two renowned & distinct wine stylists working together, finally, is really what this wine is all about.
The crown jewel of La Sirena, Cabernet Sauvignon is Heidi's favorite varietal to work with, and the wine she is best-known for throughout her career. This Cabernet has all the makings of Heidi's classic, elegant and balanced style, produced from some of the finest vineyards in Napa Valley. Opulent and lush as a young wine, it's also a favorite among collectors for its age-worthiness.

A deeply hued garnet color, with gorgeous aromas of black cherry, cassis, wild blackberry, black tea, and a complex floral note, layered and enhanced by French Oak nuances. Across the palate, it’s luxurious and elegant, yet powerful, with flavors to match the aromatics. Flavors linger with a long balanced profile that expands as the wine continues to open. While delicious and impressive now, it will also be a wine that can age and bring enjoyment for many years to come.

Cabernet Sauvignon is our flagship wine for La Sirena and continues to display the elegance, balance, and beautiful opulence expected from Heidi Barrett. “Cabernet Sauvignon is what I am best known for and what I have built my 30+ year reputation on.” (Also her favorite wine to make). Cabernet lovers will recognize the winemaking style which is quite similar to the Screaming Eagle wines Heidi made in the past with a very similar blend profile.
The 2016 Barrett & Barrett Cabernet Sauvignon makes an immediate impression with a very dark black ruby color in the glass. A primary aroma of elegant black raspberry is accompanied by notes of cassis, plum, vanilla bean, wet stone, and subtle toasted spices. On the palate, wild blackberry pie comes to mind in this concentrated, beautifully ripe and structured Cab. A big wine with balance, complexity and textural, integrated tannins leading to a long, powerful and silky finish. Voluptuous and intriguing on release, it will surely age and develop for many years to come.
The 2015 Barrett & Barrett Cab, re-tasted in early 2023, presents a powerful and complex nose - definitely some more savory characteristics along with the fruit. The blackberry jam fruit character is joined with meaty and earthy tones, like mushroom, soy/hoisin sauce, shiso leaf, bramble, and minerality. On the palate, it is extremely concentrated - 2015 was a strong drought year, so we had lower crop, but incredible concentration of flavor and texture that is evident here. It’s savory yet juicy on the palate, reminiscent of blackberry pie with a little extra salt.
Leading with very appealing berry-cherry aromas, the 2014 Barrett & Barrett Cab smells delicious and well-developed already, though it can definitely age quite a bit longer. The opulent and complex nose presents notes of plum, cocoa, cinnamon, peppercorn, and anise that seem to evolve with each sniff. On the palate, it is dense and rich, with a smooth texture, nice acidity, and integrated tannins leading into an impressively long finish. Very rewarding to drink this one now, though we think it will age another 20 years at least.
Graceful, understated, refined – a beautifully made wine from a challenging vintage. Fruit notes are cranberry, pomegranate, raspberry, with characteristics of black tea, graphite, wet stone, herbs, and a touch of chalky dust. Much lighter in texture, it has a supple feel and good weight – it opens with a restrained and lightly perfumed nose, flows gently with silkiness on the palate, and fades with a nuanced, medium length finish.
