A bottle that holds a lot of sentimental meaning, this was the first “nice” bottle of wine my wife and I bought together shortly after we got engaged in 2015. We went to Napa a few days later and attended the Flora Springs Trilogy release party (which we ended up doing 6 times in a row). While iced-in here in TX this week, we decided to open this bottle that we’ve had for almost 8yrs exactly to the day. One of the things I love about wine is the ability to attach memories to bottles!
Right off the bat, this is classical 2011 Napa. It has a distinct green streak down the middle of the palate. Flora Springs was able to get the fruit semi-ripe which balanced out the lean and mean acidity. I have no qualms with 2011 Napa (and have found some to be absolutely incredible). I can appreciate a wine that speaks to the vintage, like this one. At roughly 12yrs, this is integrated. Oak is in the background, with cherry pipe tobacco, cherry cordial and underripe blackberries. Smooth and light bodied on the palate. Not getting any better, I suggest enjoying now. — 2 years ago
They have updated the label since. Sweet and a little syrupy mouthfeel. About as sweet as I'll go in a white. But a great value! Only a little bit of "overripe pear" note on day three of being open. A crowd-pleaser, as well. One of Oliver's less "cheapy" sweet options. A worthy buy. — 5 years ago
Pleasant mouth feel, not to much of a tannin flavor. Very fruit-forward in the flavor — 10 months ago
