Just bottled with only 2700 cases made, this tiny production white blend typical does not get rated or even sent for review. It is blend of three different grape varietals, all vinified separately then aged on the lees for 3 months before bottling giving it that extra boost of flavors.
Our Thoughts.........
Fresh, clean and lively (never touches oak) with intense exotic fruit aromas. Offering up juicy notes of white peach, gooseberry, and citrus, it’s medium-bodied, has good acidity, and a clean, balanced texture. Crisp, clean and zesty in the mouth, it offers delicate flavors of citrus fruit and grapefruit on a long lingering finish.

About Rubus in their words….
There are winemakers across the globe crafting delicious, fruit-driven wines. There are wineries who are using the most expensive glass, who have hired the most creative artists to design their labels, who have created the most luxurious tasting rooms. Then, there are wineries whose efforts and resources have been devoted to creating the most satisfying wine they can conceive. Fran Kysela set out to find the latter - the ones who are focused on the juice in the bottle, so that he could offer consumers a pleasurable drink at a pleasurable price. He found what he was looking for, and he calls it Rubus.
Rubus is a private label created and used by Kysela Pere et Fils, LTD in order to buy, bottle and market wine found at an incredible quality/price ratio. Over the past few years, Rubus has become an international brand, encompassing wines from various continents.
See you tomorrow!
