TN: 2005 Flora Springs Cabernet Sauvignon St. Helena Reserve Rennie Vineyard

• 2005 Flora Springs Cabernet Sauvignon St. Helena Reserve Rennie Vineyard - USA, California, Napa Valley, St. Helena (4/27/2010)
  Dark purple in appearance. Initially quite hot and almost undrinkable straight out of the bottle. I let this sit for a couple of hours and wow - am I glad I did. Very bold concentrated with notes of vanilla, tobacco and cassis. Even better the second and third nights. I drank it with steak on the first night and then drank the rest of the bottle on the next few nights while relaxing. Overall, I’m glad I bought this - the second bottle will be revisited in a few years. (94 pts.)

Thanks! I’ve been a lurker here for awhile… Another EBob semi-refugee (I renewed in March…)
