Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, December 2005
An authoritative, deep plum/ruby-tinged effort, the 2001 Rubicon offers up a big, smoky, sweet perfume of cassis, plums, and anise. This aromatic, seductive red possesses medium body, supple tannin, good spice, a creamy texture, and savory fruit. Already drinkable (unusual for a big 2001 from Napa), it will last for 10-15 years.

Wine Spectator, November 2004
Dark, smooth, rich and complex, with a silky texture leading to a core of ripe plum, black cherry, smoky oak and wild berry flavors, finishing with a long, intricate aftertaste. This is a wine that grows on you. Best from 2006 through 2012. 5,230 cases made. (JL)
