Chinese New Year 2022
December 19, 2021
Chinese New Year celebrates the beginning of a new year on the traditional Chinese calendar. Each Chinese zodiac year begins on Chinese New Year’s Day. In 2022, Chinese New Year begins Tuesday, February 1.The festival is usually referred to as the Spring Festival in mainland China, and is one of several Lunar New Years in Asia.
The Spring Festival is a time of celebration – to welcome the new year with a smile and let fortune and happiness continue. At the same time, the Spring Festival involves somber ceremonies to wish for a good harvest.
Here at Flora Springs, for the fourth year now, we have chosen to celebrate Chinese New Year with a playful, strikingly etched and hand painted magnum of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. This year Nat Komes created a dazzling new design, see the 2017 Year of the Tiger Cabernet Sauvignon Magnum.

2022 is the Year of the Tiger in the Chinese Zodiac, representing the third in line of the twelve Zodiac animals. As one might expect, people born in the Year of the Tiger are courageous, daring and ambitious. They are also generous and self-confident, committed to helping others with a distinct sense of justice. This etched and hand painted magnum depicts this brave and independent-minded creature in all her glory. Best to keep the Tiger on your side!
