Flora Springs Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012
The grapes for this 2012 Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, were grown in some of Napa Valley’s most prestigious appellations, including the mid-valley regions of Rutherford and Oakville. As in previous vintages, a portion of the hand-picked grapes are pressed off early to minimize skin contact and retain the bright fruit forward character of the fruit. The balance was left on the skins for an extended period of time to extract soft tannins which round out the mid-palate and create a lovely long finish. Small portions of Malbec (3%) and Petite Verdot (2%) are added to add complexity, color and deep flavor to the finished wine.
