Rubicon Estate Rubicon 1995
Other Red Wine
from Napa Valley, California
winemaker's notes:
The visual beauty of this wine is obvious with its deep and nearly opaque red/purple color. The aroma is so lifted and inviting with rich red cherry and violet characters that it draws your attention to it immediately. This is one of the most elegant Rubicons that we have made with a seductive and saturated sweet core of fruit and oak that is layered on a structure of very fine and very soft tannins. Great vintages are expressed on the finish, and the finish on the 1995 is very similar to that of the 1994, persisting on the palette almost indefinitely. Blend: 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc.
