About the Wine

The 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon is one of the best Paso Robles Cabernets available. Crafted from the same quality fruit as our flagship ISOSCELES blend, and made of 100% cabernet sauvignon, this wine is a Cabernet lover’s dream. This wine is bold and complex with ripe black fruit, sweet spice, and that classic Cabernet mix of savory and herbal characteristics. Its structural texture keeps this wine balanced and fresh from its beginning through its very long, complex finish.

Full-bodied but beautifully balanced with ripe black cherry, black currant, and toasted oak on the entry, followed by a rich and full midpalate with velvety but firm tannins and notes of sweet tobacco, cedar, espresso, and black pepper.
