INGLENOOK RUBICON 2018 750ml

The 2018 Inglenook Rubicon is a sophisticated and classically styled Cabernet Sauvignon that pays homage to the estate’s storied past. It opens with an elegant and deep bouquet of black cherries, cassis, and scorched earth, followed by subtle nuances of cedar, violet, and tobacco leaf. On the palate, the wine is remarkably refined, showing a structural precision characteristic of the excellent 2018 vintage. The tannins are firm yet finely polished, providing a seamless framework for the concentrated dark fruit and mineral undertones. This is a wine of great poise and longevity, leaning more towards European restraint than Californian opulence, and finishing with exceptional persistence and freshness.
