2018 Justin Isosceles [JS91]

"Savory nose with a leafy character, reminiscent of green olives. Tobacco leaf, currants, red chili pepper and umami, too. Generous and broad on the palate with a medium to full body, sweet tannins and berry fruit. Savory and pretty long. 83% cabernet sauvignon, 9% merlot and 8% cabernet franc. Drink now." 

Winemaker Notes: 

"Full-bodied with ripe black cherry and blackcurrant fruit complemented with baking spice and oak notes on entry. Sustained fruit and spice are joined by savory autumn leaf, cedar and leather on the mid-palate with mouth filling, fine tannins that lead into a long, complex and balanced finish with attractive fruit, spice, cedar and subtle camphor notes. The 2018 vintage of Isosceles is a rare mix of boldness and finesse that makes it a great pairing with similarly gifted dishes like a classic herb crusted roasted rack of lamb, a grilled prime ribeye steak, or the exquisite cheeseburgers with tomato, arugula, bacon jam and chive aioli."
