Flora Springs Holiday Cabernet Sauvignon 2003 PET-NAT dialing back new oak andFlora Springs' Holiday Cabernet from 2003 showcases the ripe, powerful expression of that landmark Napa vintage. The wine displays a ripe, oaky nose with black currant and blackberry, delivering considerable power on the palate enlivened by spice and decent acidity. These special etched holiday themed bottles began as Nat Komes' way of thanking club members; this 2003 is a mature, collectible example from the estate's Rutherford roots.
