A vibrant and expressive wine with lively aromas of fresh citrus, ripe melon, passion fruit and subtle herbaceous hints. On the palate, the wine has a mouthwatering acidity, bright fruit intensity and a crisp clean finish.
The Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Malvasia grapes were sourced from vineyards in the Yountville AVA on gravelly silt loam soils. The warm days are tempered by coolings winds and fog from the San Pablo Bay, allowing the grapes to undergo a perfectly paced ripening. The vineyards are farmed following organic practices with a particular focus on soil health and biodiversity.
Upon arrival at the winery, the grapes were gently pressed and underwent fermentation in stainless steel with indigenous yeasts. Unoaked, the wine was kept in stainless steel for 5 months before the final blend was assembled and bottled.
Flora Springs in Napa’s St. Helena was founded by the Komes Garvey family in 1978. The estate was named in honour of Flora Komes, the family matriarch, who lived to 101 and whose simple philosophy “the land returns the love you give it” shaped the winery’s sustainable approach to vineyard management. This resonated with Gina Gallo-Boisset, a champion of both sustainability and women in wine. When Flora Springs came up for sale in 2024, she and her husband Jean-Charles Boisset jumped at the chance to build on the family legacy with their twin daughters, who grew up among the vineyards of Napa.
