1996 La Sirena Cabernet
Dinner at Pinot Blanc in St. Helena.
1996 La Sirena Cabernet Sauvignon - Bottle was signed by Heidi Petersen Barrett. Nose of vanlla, toffee, coconut, sweet strawberries, minerals, cherries, and a bit of stewed prunes towards the end. Tannins rounded despite the young age. Very nice indeed.
On the wine list for USD 250.
Ann Colgin was at the next table celebrating her 50th(?) birthday and was drinking Château Margaux. If I had brought the 1992 Colgin as I originally planned, I would have asked her to sign it...
