History
In 1975, Francis Ford Coppola purchased the historic Inglenook property, intent on restoring the estate’s legacy of creating world-class wines equal to those that founder Gustave Niebaum and his grandnephew John Daniel Jr. made for decades. Rubicon, the estate’s premier wine since 1978, is produced from the best estate grown fruit, including the historic Gustave Niebaum Cabernet Sauvignon selection, which was first planted on the property in the 1880s.
Vintage
Inglenook’s premier red wine, Rubicon, produced on the estate since 1978, restoring the estate’s legacy of world-class wines. This wine is an elegant blend from the finest vineyard blocks, showcasing the best of both the estate and the vintage. The 2014 growing climate was consistently warm which triggered an early harvest that yielded fruit of high quality and impressive concentration. Compared to the 2012 and 2013 Rubicon, the soft integrated tannins of the 2014 vintage can be enjoyed as a young wine or cellared for decades. The true story of this wine develops over time, during which the 2014 Rubicon reveals the dynamic layers of complexity.
