Characteristics:
The 2011 Rubicon demonstrates refined freshness, with very complex aromas and a well-balanced flavor profile. Impressions of juicy dark cherries, tobacco and currants are prevalent, while notes of spices, tea leaves and earthy notes create a more rugged wine that is expressive of its unique terroir. The fine-grained tannins support an elegant texture and refined finish, which is persistent and expressive, with deep aromatic notes of espresso. Blend of 90% Cabernet Sauvignon and 10% Petit Verdot. The wine was aged on 80% new oak barrels for 18 months. To experience the full nature of this wine, one hour of decanting is recommended.

Food pairing:
Exceptional length. Meditation wine with exceptional flavours, depth and aftertaste.
