About this Item
2000 Rubicon
6 (1 x 6) 750ml
The name 'Rubicon' is from ancient Roman days as the crucial border of the ancient capital was named the Rubicon River. When the border was crossed it was deemed as an irrevocable point in history, much like the introduction of Rubicon to the South African fine wine market. 2000 marks the 25th vintage of this iconic SA red.

Critics Ratings
"Deep purple ink colour. A spicy tobacco leaf and cigar box bouquet. Firm tannins, youthful palate. The wine is well-balanced and has good ageing potential." - Best in Class Silver - International Wine and Spirits Competition ( IWCS ) 2005
