After killing the Grant Burge GSM we decided to open another bottle. Jeff did not have much of the GSM and was on a drinking mission, and I was just drunk enough to believe that more wine was a great idea (my hangover the next day would, however, prove otherwise). Jeff burrowed around his collection a bit, and consultation with his Justin aging chart told him that the Isosceles was ready to go.

I was happy that he did decide this – the Isosceles was a great cab. It had a hint of vanilla about it, and it had way more prescence in the glass than the GSM did. The flavour reminded me of the Penfolds Bin 707 a little bit (it has that same vanilla Cabernet feel to it), just slightly more subdued. There was also more smoothness and sugar in the 707, but considering the price points this is not surprising.

Looking around the tubes this is not exactly a cheap cab at around $50-$60 a bottle, but the quality was enough that I would definitely consider Justin the next time I want to try something Californian.
