Niebaum Estate Cabernet Sauvignon
Niebaum Estate 1882 gets its name from a genuinely pivotal year in Inglenook's history: 1882 was both the first vintage Gustave Niebaum ever produced at the estate he'd purchased in 1879, and the same year he dug an experimental aging cellar into the Mayacamas foothills, searching for the ideal conditions to barrel-age his wine. Niebaum, a Finnish sea captain, had spent his first years on the property tearing out old Mission grapevines and replanting with Cabernet Sauvignon, a bet that paid off when Inglenook won a Gold Medal at the 1889 Paris Exposition. Francis Ford Coppola bought part of the historic property in 1975 and eventually restored the Inglenook name itself in 2011, after decades of building the estate's flagship Rubicon (which scored 97 points from both Antonio Galloni and James Suckling for its 2013 vintage). This Niebaum Estate bottling — formerly sold as "Cask" Cabernet Sauvignon — functions as Rubicon's second wine, built from a similar Bordeaux-style blend of estate Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Merlot, aged in French oak. CellarTracker's community consistently rates it around 90 points across dozens of reviews. A genuinely storied bottle from one of Napa's founding estates.
