Flora Springs Napa Valley Family Estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, CA 2018

Flora Springs 2018 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon combines fruit from two outstanding, sustainably-farmed vineyard sources: the Komes Vineyard in Rutherford and our Crossroads Vineyard in Oakville. Fragrant, fruit-driven aromas of black cherry, purple plum and currant introduce this plush, polished Cabernet, with similar flavors joined by notes of vanilla, dark chocolate, cola and licorice. The wine is lithe and velvety on the palate, with fine, well-integrated tannins. A bright streak of acidity keeps the mouth feel fresh and balanced, with a flourish of orange peel and toast on the finish.
