A concentrated and rich nose with aromas of blood plums, mocha, prunes, and baking spices. The plate is full-bodied with firm tannins and long, lingering notes of blackberry compote, roasted meat, graphite, and citrus rind. Made from a blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, and 7% Merlot. It needs time in a bottle for the tannins to soften. Drinkable now, but best from 2028. ~ 93 James Suckling
The 2021 Isosceles is remarkably pretty, with a peppery array of wild herbs, mint leaf and tart cherries. Silken in feel, it reveals depths of ripe red and black fruits that slowly saturate as a core of vibrant acidity maintains energy throughout. The finish is structured and long, leaving a tart concentration of primary fruits and a balsamic twang. ~ 93 Vinous Media

What the Critics Said
THE PRODUCER
Justin Vineyards & Winery
Founded in 1981 by Justin Baldwin, Justin Vineyards & Winery helped put Paso Robles on the global wine map with its bold Bordeaux-style blends and meticulous estate farming. Nestled in the rugged limestone hills of California’s Central Coast, the winery’s vineyards benefit from warm days, cool coastal nights, and ancient calcareous soils that mirror those of France’s Right Bank. Justin’s philosophy — balance, structure, and elegance — guides every bottle, from the iconic ISOSCELES to its estate Cabernet Sauvignon. Over four decades later, Justin remains a benchmark for Paso Robles winemaking, blending Old World techniques with the vibrant character of California terroir.
