Flora Springs
Holy Smoke Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon
Poured an ounce or two while the rest of the bottled is decanting. This is drinking really well right now based on the sample glass. A deep garnet color, but not showing any significant bottle age. Cedar, dark fruit, leather and a little eucalyptus on the nose. Blackberries all day, and some bell pepper on the palate. Tannins are rounded and not overpowering. We've had other 2011 single vineyards from Flora Springs before, but this is our favorite. Will update after diving into the decanter.
