Justin Justification - 2019 (750ml)

Sharp woodspice aromas meeting with dried meat and blackberry sauce on the engaging nose of this blend of 51% Cabernet Franc and 49% Merlot. The ripe and heavy berry sauce flavors are ladled over smoked meat on the palate, which is contained by firmly structured tannins. — Matt Kettmann

The 2019 Justification impresses with a wild spry blend of crushed blackberries, stone dust and spiced citrus hints. It's round and supple on the palate, with cacao-tinged plum and black cherry offset by juicy acidity. It leaves fine tannins and balsamic spice coating yet cleans up beautifully. This energetic blend of 51% Cabernet Franc and 49% Merlot is just begging for a short stay in the cellar.
