Rubicon Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Animal and bold, sweet tobacco and forest leaves. Smooth tannins and jammy. Low acidity and lack of proper roundness and refinement.

Oct 22nd, 2016Crossed the Rubicon and passed a point of no return just like Julius Caesar's army's crossing of the Rubicon River (in the north of Italy ) in 49 BC which this wine is aptly named for. Red currants, blackberries, cedar, herbs, and more are all crossing together harmoniously in this iconic wine.
