This is not a big Bonnes Mares but there is muscle present all the same and it will require a few years in the cellar first to really display its full potential

Inglenook, Rutherford, Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2017 California The estate includes six Grand94 points Decanter A classic Napa Cabernet, smooth and rich, softly spoken with swirls of black fruits and gentle spice. This will age but there is no need to wait too long as the sides are already smoothed out. A great entry point to Rubicon, showing how carefully Inglenook walks the line between richly powerful concentrated Cabernet and a fresher lean style of wine. No trace of over ripeness or the smoke that impacted the very end of the picking.
