Inglenook / Rubicon Estate / Niebaum-Coppola Cabernet Sauvignon Cask (Rutherford)
Lush, rich, concentrated, forward, ripe and packed with fresh, sweet fruits, licorice, oak, smoke and black cherries. Drink it now or age, this is really nice and already open. For Napa Cabernet today, it's also really well priced. 4,299 Views Tasted Sep 27, 2015 |

Inglenook / Rubicon Estate / Niebaum-Coppola Rubicon (Rutherford)
This is a much better wine than it was when tasted as a barrel sample. It's really filled out with much more richness and fullness. The sweet, ripe blackberries, black cherries, licorice, chocolate, vanilla and smoke are out in full force. The tannins are ripe, round and polished. 3,966 Views Tasted Sep 27, 2015From one of the highest concentrations of Cabernet Sauvignon ever used in the blend at 98%, with the remainder coming from Caberent Franc, the wine opens with blackberry jam, earth, coffee, black cherry, fresh herbs and cassis in the nose. There is ample freshness, tannin, fruit and structure to age well. 3,130 Views Tasted May 16, 2012 |
