description: Showing the best structure of Flora Springs' impressive quartet of '04 vineyard desigated Cabs, this is a firm, well-sculpted wine whose pedigree stands out, but it needs time. It's a big, tannic, closed wine, dry and astringent. But there's a gigantic heart of blackberry fruit, and I would be surprised if this wine doesn't turn into a real beauty by 2010.
variety: Cabernet Sauvignon
designation: Rutherford Hillside Reserve
