Flora Springs
Trilogy Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Napa Valley, California, USA
The main reason we come out to Napa is for the Flora Springs Trilogy Release Party. Such an absolute blast and amazing time. This was my third year attending and this was their first time opening older vintages. Got to try the '14, '94 and '95 vintages all back to back. For what it's worth, the '14 is just a hair below the herald '13. I'd put it above the '12. Not quite the fruit bomb on the tongue, but more mellowed. '13 will age better but the '14 is better now. Lots of plum and baking spices on the nose and palate. '95 was superior to the '94 and it wasn't close...seemed as though the '94 was closing up. If you have it, drink now. If you have the '95, you're good for a few years. Enjoyed sharing Trilogy wines with @Greg Ballington ! My first person from Delectable to meet in person!
