The 2018 Isosceles is youthfully understated yet darkly alluring, with black cherry and spiced citrus nuances lifting from the glass. This washes across the palate with ease, cool-toned and with a pure mix of red and black fruits. It finishes with admirable length while maintaining an energetic feel. Blackberry hints slowly fade.

Very California red - fruity, allspice, vanilla, tobacco. Some ripe peach? Great slightly chilled. Love it.

6/2022. Another good 2018. For me, Paso Robles reds are just getting better and better. Bold and full of flavor.

Justin ‘Isosceles’ 2018: Full-bodied. Dry & balanced acidity. Smooth integrated tannins. Plump lush dark fruits. Blackberry. Black cherry. Vanilla. Tobacco. Cedar. Spice. Oak. Silky fine finish. Consisting of 83% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Merlot & 8% Cabernet Franc, this wine was very expressive, juicy & complex. A bit young by vintage however still very sophisticated, approachable & drinkable right now. All in all, an excellent Paso Robles wine & the best Justin wine offering. Great day to all! Cheers🍷

It’s good, but not amazing! A little dry. Almost has an after taste of sweet butter. I’d drink again.

Jammy fruit forward wine with balanced acidity. Tannins are lighter than expected for the young age. Drink now or in 5 years.

Nice strawberry cherry start with hint of vanilla and earthy taste. Moderate tannins with nice finish.

An off year. A little sweet up front and bitter aftertaste

Amazing wine. Dry, low tannins, smooth and delicious. There's nothing we didn't like about this beauty. Paid $96 for the 2018.
