This month, we present a perennial High End Wine Club favorite - 2007 Justin Isosceles Proprietary Red Wine, a classic blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. 2007 was a great year for California Cabernet, and this wine is stellar. Isoceles has always aspired to be considered among the elite meritage wines in America, to be considered the equal of Napa's best, and this year they succeeded. A great success, and not to be missed!
We've been drinking their 2007 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon for a little under a year now, and that tasty wine is a great example of how this wine might evolve through a few years of additional bottle aging.
The bold and ripe fruit flavors are 100% California, featuring superb richness, structure, depth and a sensuous texture that has us begging for more! Starting with elegant layers of blackberry, cherry, cassis and hints of cinnamon and nutmeg with delightful tones of vanilla extract and lightly toasted oak on the sultry finish.
This is a truly voluptuous wine with a velvet smooth texture combined with plush tannins that are prominent now and bode well for a remarkable experience over the next 7-10 years, probably peaking around 2014...or pair this delicious new creation with a juicy steak tonight (after decanting for at least an hour!).
