Justin Justification 2017

The 2017 Justification is a Right Bank-style combination of Cabernet Franc and Merlot, with 65% Cabernet Franc and 35% Merlot. It's a medium to dark ruby-purple color with brilliant red and black cherry fruits, as well as garrigue, dry herbs, vanilla, and cardamom notes. It has a medium to full-bodied mouthfeel, with progressively unfolding fruits and a robust, gritty structure. It has a lot of lift and freshness, and it lasts a long time. A warm, welcoming style.
