WOTN for me at the La Sirena wine dinner. Heidi Barrett’s daughter, Remy, offered a lively conversation about her mom and the wines. We tried the ‘14, 15, and 2016 of the B&B and ‘15 was by far my favorite. Much more concentrated fruit. 2015 was a struggle vintage with little rain, hence the bolder fruit concentration. This was a much more nuanced wine IMO. Well balanced. Big wine, but everything was in balance. Stunning. @55Seventy — 3 years ago

Sounds like a fun dinner. 55Seventy is off to a great start over there it seems.

This is a really mellow summer wine. Not quite champagne fizz but more than a tzaokilina. Worth another round — 4 years ago

Unique flavor profile: honey, elderflower, apricot, and wet stone. Weighty but still soft and delicate, lifted and aromatic. — 3 years ago

2010 fest. Heidi Barrett Northern Rhône style red blend. Good wine on the nose and and palate. Very balanced on the palate. Contrasting flavors of deep ripe fruit and oak and vanilla. Lighter bodied but no less intriguing. — 2 years ago

One of (the only?) the only whites made by Heidi Barrett, this is a really great Chardonnay. No noticeable oak, which is my personal new requirement. Slightly sweeter than I remembered but very balanced with good acidity and minerality (I don’t care if this term is falling out of favor amongst the “experts”, as it still describes how a wine feels to me!) — 5 years ago
