“A fabulous Petite Sirah… rivals the finest Napa examples of this underrated varietal.” - 94 Points. Robert Parker
Simply stated, no red wine varietal delivers as much bold, age worthy fruit for so little $ as our favorite Napa Petite Sirah! By far the “best in class” is the outstanding Caliban Petite Sirah Napa 2004 ($39.99), which just garnered an impressive 94 point rating from uber-critic Robert Parker. Caliban is crafted by Dave Phinney, world-famous proprietor of The Prisoner and Mercury Head. We’ve already sold out of Mercury Head (sorry) and are on Last Call for The Prisoner so don’t miss the chance to secure one of Napa’s most exhilarating wine experiences from one of Napa’s most popular winemakers. Micro-production merely 190 cases and we will sell out so order now. Free Shipping on 6+ bottles. Please, no sales to retailers.
ROBERT PARKER REVIEW 94 POINTS
A fabulous Petite Sirah, Caliban’s 2004 rivals the finest Napa examples of this underrated varietal. An inky/blue/purple hue is followed by aromas and flavors of creosote, graphite, blueberries, blackberries, and brioche. The wine is full-bodied with fabulous pure fruit that cascades over the palate in layer upon layer. There is plenty of tannin, but most of it is buried under the extravagant display of fruit and glycerin. This 2004 should drink well for 20-25 years.
