Heiner Lobenberg om:
Rubicon 2023

98–100
/100

Den mest komplekse og spændende vin, der nogensinde er blevet produceret her. Syren og friskheden overgår træet, frugten er utrolig dynamisk og nuanceret, og mineraliteten vibrerer. En stor californisk vin, en af de allerbedste fra et enestående årgang.

Suckling om: Rubicon

A big, concentrated yet sleek and composed red that shows the greatness of the Inglenook estate. Aromas of black fruit, blueberries, black cherries and cocoa, then deep and broad flavors of black cherries, black olives, black currants and creme de cassis. Velvety, mouth-filling tannins perfectly balanced the bold fruit flavors. Made from a lower than usual percentage of cabernet sauvignon at 78%, with 11% merlot, 6% cabernet franc and 5% petit verdot. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

Parker om: Rubicon

Slated to be bottled in May 2025, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Rubicon is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Merlot, 6% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot. It's a darker-fruited vintage, with scents of mocha, black cherries, black olives and earthy notes on the nose, while the medium- to full-bodied palate is richly textured, showing great intensity and ample tannins on the lingering finish.

The Wine Palate om: Rubicon

The 2023 Rubicon is a blend of 78% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Cabernet Franc, 11% Merlot, and 5% Petit Verdot. Deep garnet-purple in color, it needs a little shaking to wake up scents of warm cassis, black cherries, and cardamom, followed by suggestions of camphor, mocha, and wild sage. The medium to full-bodied palate is vibrant and racy with black fruit and savory layers, supported by firm, grainy tannins, finishing long and minerally.

Jane Anson om: Rubicon

Intense, concentrated, poised, bursting with controlled but fleshy cassis and bilberry fruits, firm tannic frame, a ton of ageing potential without losing the joyful ability of Napa Cabernet to be approached within a few years of bottling. Again showing that it's hard to go wrong with 2023 Napa. Todd Devincenzi director, Philippe Bascaules winemaking director. 95ha estate.

Decanter om: Rubicon

Inglenook’s Rubicon is a very pretty, elegant wine in 2023, marked by a lovely freshness that weaves bay laurel and sage through cherry and blackberry fruit, graphite nuances, and perfumed red and white rose notes. It is lifted and expressive from the outset. On the palate, it builds with a soft, supple character defined by ultra-fine cocoa-powder tannins so characteristic of Rutherford. There is immense elegance here, along with purity of fruit and juicy acid tension, while a gentle swell of tannin gathers on the finish. One of the best Rubicons I’ve tasted in some time.
