2010 Flora Springs Trilogy Proprietary Cabernet Blend

In 1984 we set out to make the best wine possible by hand selecting the highest quality lots from our estate vineyards. Using a blend of Bordeaux varietals--Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Malbec--we created Trilogy, one of the original Meritage wines. Over the years, we have found that the Merlot brings a bright red fruit character to the wine while the Cabernet and Malbec deliver rich, black fruit qualities. This year, we've added a splash of Cabernet Franc, another dark fruit varietal, to the mix and we couldn't be happier with the results. Our 2010 Trilogy is a beautifully balanced, opulent wine that leaves you wanting more. The aromatics jump out of the glass, luscious black cherry and sandalwood followed by blueberry and rhubarb. Black cherry is the driving force in the palate married with white pepper and sage and finishing with sweet earth and mushroom tones.  83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Merlot, 4% Malbec, 1% Cabernet Franc
