Rubicon Estate - Cask Cabernet 2005 (750ml) Verdicchio dei Castelli di Jesi

Rubicon Estate - Cask Cabernet 2005 (750ml) Verdicchio dei Castelli di JesiLots of new, smoky oak stands out on this polished Cab. Give it a little time in a decanter before you drink, as it pulls together, becoming more powerful and accenting the blackberry and cherry flavors. Should develop for a decade.

That suggests this is a wine that will develop relatively fast

Keller Estates is nearby the San Pablo Bay

We don’t do any “dosage” in this wine

100% destemmed

in the fields and bars around Treviso

and because of our winery's leading role in our region

and a very well-balanced finish

Refined in barriques (French oak) for 12 months and then in Slovenian oak barrels for 18 months followed by 6-8 months in bottle

Reveals a nice fleur de sel note inlaid on the finish

It features a pleasant aroma of dried fruit and figs

The round tannins are firm enough to provide structure and the oak is subtly integrated
