About the Wine

The 2020 vintage is the fifth release of PLATINUM Reserve. Each bottle is decorated in platinum, a prized precious metal which suitably illustrates the scarcity of this limited production. Twenty-four months of bottle aging prior to release helps ensure that all components have had ample time to marry and integrate, but additional time in the bottle will surely be rewarded. 


With this unique profile, our Cabernet Sauvignons can deliver in ways that wines made and grown in other areas of California just can’t. After decades of making Cabernet blends, we decided to focus on the Cabernet Sauvignon variety at the highest level of quality, and the result is our PLATINUM Reserve: a wine that shows exactly what is so special about JUSTIN, Paso Robles, and Cabernet Sauvignon. Produced in very limited quantities, this wine is a stunning example of a world-class Cabernet Sauvignon that balances power and complexity with an ability to age beautifully.


Available to ship beginning November 11th.

Tasting Notes

Body

LightMediumFull

Appearance

Intense deep purple core with a bright ruby rim and moderately staining, slow tears in the glass.

Aroma

Intensely aromatic with notes of baked red plum, cassis, and black raspberry with hints of chicory root, menthol, sweet tobacco, vanilla bean, and subtle black olive.

Maturation

Full-bodied and bold with lush black cherry and boysenberry fruit, the palate is fresh and evolves into more complex notes of cherry cola, graphite, leather, and cedar. This is balanced by persistent, well-integrated tannin and accented with toasted oak and baking spice for a long and memorable finish.
