Justin Isosceles 1997

The 1997 ISOSCELES has a deep garnet color with purple hues. After swirling the glass, vanilla, raspberry and cassis aromas complement initial impressions of cedar, blueberry, toasted oak and spices. The wine has a soft and full entry. The acidity that follows the entry balances the wines compact tannic structure and higher alcohol level. As the wine develops, the fruit and oak become more pronounced, creating a long and predominantly raspberry and toasted oak finish. The 1997 Isosceles is well structured, complex and well balanced. The wine can be drunk now but will further evolve over the next 5 to 7 years. A bottle cellared over 5 years should always be decanted!
