Flora Springs Trilogy 2001
Bordeaux Red Blends
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
The philosophy of blending is basic to the concept of Trilogy. We approach this wine like an artist with a palette of colors. The result is a complex masterpiece of flavors and aromas that have great persistence on the palate and are tempered with a sense of elegance and finesse.
A preliminary Trilogy blend was made after malo-lactic fermentation had concluded. The wine rested quietly in small (50% new) French oak barrels until just prior to bottling. The Malbec adds depth of color and an intense blueberry, black plum character to the wine.

Compared to Opus ('99 to '99). Opus was flat by comparision. Trilogy opened up. Tremendous wine at a great price.
A Customer - NYC
A great friend and a very wise wine enthusiast alerted me to this wine about a year ago, and sice then I have had the pleasure of sharing this great bottle with a lot of friends who have since become big fans of its great taste and body. This Meritage is one of the finest to come out of Napa so it is without hesitation that I wholeheartedly recommend this wine to any enthusiast or casual drinker. You will be amazed.
