It's time for my #FridayCabernetfix. Here is a delicious one.
Inky in color with a short reddish rim.
Fruity nose of blackberries, black currants, plums, sweet cherries, chocolates, cedar, light caramel, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco light cola and black pepper.
Full bodied and smooth with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black cherries, plums, licorice, vanilla, cola, cedar, black coffee, chocolates, tobacco, earth, beef jerky and peppercorn.
Nice finish with fine grained tannins and red cherries.
This young Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is already drinking very nicely. Showing nice complexity with a nice, soft mouthfeel.
Very true to the Terroir, without too much alcohol, which I liked.
Well balance and interesting. Fruit forward, rich and extracted.
Will age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Showing nice potential to become a 94+ point wine.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after an hour in a decanter.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food. Will pair nicely with BBQ Meats. I paired it with Camembert cheese and prosciutto.
100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes from Oakville and Rutherford, were aged in French (mostly) and American oak barrels for 18 months.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

64% CS, 28% ME, & 8% CF. No Malbec as listed in the description. I’ve had this for awhile. Didn’t like the first bottle so I avoided trying again. When I did try again I was surprised how much it improved with some age. — 5 years ago
V interesting. Tastes completely different than I expected from smell — 6 years ago
Day 3 in Napa in the books! Running a day behind on notes...Napa time runs slow AND fast!
Main reason we go out this time of year each year...the Flora Springs Trilogy Release Party! Very similar in style to their Rutherford Reserve Cab with more chocolate and roasted plum alongside red & black fruit. More plush than their other offerings. — 7 years ago
Cool crisp pear notes so not as citrusy or acidic - rounder sauv Blanc - great poolside drinking — 7 years ago
Buttery, drinking well some lobster pot pies — 8 years ago
Pale lemon with fresh stone and citrus fruit aromas and nutty floral notes. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and grapefruit with honeysuckle and citrus spice. Medium finish, lively acidity, ending with fruit, mineral and herb floral character. Tried twice. — 4 years ago
Dark berries and vanilla. — 5 years ago
The label is both pretty and evocative of this pretty and evocative wine that feels as though you've literally become the bottle's essence...like a love potion of petrichor and lover's spit HA ;). But really, smells like a field of freshly misted wildflowers beside a deep lake full of mystique, and a subtle kiss of honey that leaves hints of citrus on the lips. Beautifully balanced. Luxurious and sprightly. Alluring and innocent. — 5 years ago
Our last bottle 😢. First had this at the winery in 2013, and slowly drank through our supply since then. It has held up really well and drinks well right now. Deep garnet color, showing some bricking at the edges. I get baking spices in there nose. Moderate tannins, good acid. Plum and berries in the mouth. Paired great with grilled lamb. — 5 years ago
Very silky with nice honeysuckle notes. Balanced. Some pineapple finish — 7 years ago
Dark berry, tannins, silky, cherry, blackberry and slightly hot even though it is only 14.2%. Good table wine and food friendly.

"Odedi"
Light straw in color with a green tint.
Fruity nose of green apples, limes, grapefruits, light tropical fruits, grass, light earth, spices and minerals.
Medium plus in body and creamy, with medium-plus acidity. Crisp and refreshing.
Dry on the palate with citrus, limes, green apples, grapefruits, lemons, bitter herbs, spices, light vegetables and white pepper.
Long finish with limes and almonds.
This is a very tasty Sauvignon Blanc based blend From Napa Valley. Tangy, rich and expressive.
Good by itself as a sipping wine, and good with food too.
Easy drinking, good for the pool, and better when not too cold.
A good quality wine. Well balanced and refreshing. Would be interesting to try it again in 3 years.
Tastes like a Sauvignon Blanc and feels like an unoaked Chardonnay. A perfect combination.
Paired nicely with the horseradish Cheddar cheese. Tangy and interesting.
A blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay and Malvasia. Aged for 7 months in a combination of concrete “egg” vessels and French oak barrels. A small production of 550 cases.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
