The highest-rated Isosceles Reserve Red ever for the Wine Enthusiast:
Clean lines of blackberry jam, charred toast and crushed slate make for a focused nose in this reserve blend of 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc, 3% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot. It is very dense and thick on the palate, where mocha, caramel, loamy earth and dark berry flavors align into a lusciously rich yet elegantly dry experience.
This is, by the way, selling in DC now for $185, and in Australia for a whopping $340!
It also has a whopping 4.7 average score on Vivino – their highest for ANY American Cabernet blend, and above such icons as Shafer Hillside (at 4.6). They price it at $167.99.
With reviews like this:
Incredible. Very delicate, luxurious wine. Soft, elegant on the palate with amazing aromas and taste of new French oak. This one will only get better with time.
Absolutely incredible yet again. Full body, red fruit and long finish on the palate. This bottle demands close friends, though only 2...you don’t want to have to split the bottle too many ways!
Incredible. Perfectly balanced. Every element I look for in a Bordeaux but none of them are overbearing. Drinking quite well
mid-2019, sure will continue to evolve over next few years.
2016 is of course their top-rated vintage ever, too.
