Isosceles Reserve Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon Blend
Paso Robles, Central Coast, California, USA
Who would have thought that after all that waiting, I'd finally end up opening this bottle on a random Thursday night in December? My brother got me this bottle for my birthday back in February and I was waiting for a celebratory moment to open it, but hey, who says I can't celebrate a Thursday?
Deep plum color, and almost completely opaque. Heady, subtle, deep fruit scent. Toasted oak and vanilla, black cherry, baking spice, maybe a little tobacco? Well worth the hype. Taste is smooth and soft and it gave me a little chill. Medium body, lovely tannin to balance out the beginning. I love it.
Yum. Amazing.

Higher cab franc and malbec combo than usual. Similar to the 2015 blend but I'll have revisit that one to compare. Interesting blend.
