Justin Isosceles 2019

Deep ruby/purple core with a black secondary color, and lighter toward the rim with moderate plus viscosity and slow-forming, moderately stained tears. Very aromatic and complex with ripe black cherry and cassis fruit, vanilla, cinnamon, and licorice spice with sweet tobacco, cedar, leather, and camphor notes. Full-bodied with ripe complex black cherry, boysenberry, cassis, and blackberry fruit on entry with baking spice. Dusty tannins appear on the midpalate with cedar, dried tobacco leaf, and saddle leather as it progresses. The finish is long, fresh, and balanced with notes of bay leaf, dried red rose petal, oak, and sustained tannins. The 2019 Isosceles is a bold wine with ripe fruit and attractive savory elements, which balance each other perfectly. This wine is rich and complex enough to be enjoyed on its own, but is a perfect match with a classic filet mignon with traditional sides. Blend: 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 11% Cabernet Franc, 10% Merlot

94 Points - Wine Enthusiast

This iconic Cabernet Sauvignon-based bottling, which includes 11% Cabernet Franc and 10% Merlot in this vintage, still impresses. Aromas of cola, cigar leaf, espresso and dark, plummy fruits kick off the nose. Expertly managed tannins frame the palate, where red cherry, strawberry, mace and walnut flavors sink into a viscous mouthfeel.
