Review Date: 11/2018Soft red-cherry aromas meet with dark spice on the nose of this 52% Cabernet Franc and 48% Merlot blend. Framed by firm, sticky tannins, the medium-bodied palate shows flavors of red currant, cedar and oak. (MK)

Notes
At Justin, they combine traditional Old World methods — like hand-harvesting and small-barrel aging in French oak paired with New World technology. For example: the “Air Knife,” an ingenious process invented by their winemakers, boosts grape quality and efficiency. Once the grapes are harvested, their winemakers gather to sort, select, age, taste, blend, and decide what goes into every bottle. Winery note: "This wine expresses the spirit of a few right bank Bordeaux producers who highlight Cabernet Franc with its complex expression of herbs, red fruit and elegant structure, only with a Paso Robles twist of full, mature fruit." Composed of 52% Cabernet Franc and 48% Merlot.
