Inglenook Rubicon 2006
The 2006 Rubicon reflects the
extended growing conditions of
the vintage, displaying an elegant
lusciousness of flavor as well as a
long, round finish. The
harmonious character of the
vintage is augmented by the more
classic impression of weight and
fresh precision of the fruit. It is a
vintage that offers much
complexity and will repay aging,
but is already balanced and
integrated.
