Mission Codename Cellar Stocker #12
Cellar Stocker: Cult Wines Beyond Napa Edition Continues…
And what’s a Cellar Stocker event without a majestic CENTERPIECE IMPERIAL?
Have a special party anytime soon? Need to throw down in a BIG way? This is the answer. One of the most iconic wines from Paso, with 95 points, and aged to perfection.
That’s 8 bottles’ worth of a cult Cab blend from Paso, the Venerable Justin Isosceles!!
Leave it to Robert Parker to put things in perspective: “I realize this is not a North Coast offering, but it’s such a sensational, impeccably high-quality cuvee it merited inclusion in this report. One of the finest Bordeaux blends I have ever tasted from Paso Robles…”
A “palate stroking” fruit bomb stuck inside a massive 6-liter, waiting to escape. Just don’t tell anyone what you paid for it; they won’t believe the bargain.
You can stroke a lot of palates with this big gun Bordeaux Blend. We literally have ONE bottle to share. That’s it as very, very few of these are made, to begin with.
Who will it be?
95 Points - Tasting Panel
“Fragrant purple flowers hold up a reservoir of grape and blueberry. This is juicy to its very core; ripe, sweet and toasted cinnamon sprinkled with a flash of cranberry. Earthy, gripping tannins are held in check, nestled in a soft cloth. Sturdy but palate-stroking.”
