Varietal Composition: 40% Merlot, 60% Cabernet Franc
Appearance: Dark ruby purple core with blue/black secondary hue, a medium rim with thick
tears showing slight staining on the glass.
Aroma: Aromatic and complex with ripe red cherry, black currant and a little berry with vanilla,
cinnamon and licorice spice, cedar and graphite notes, oak, leather, dried autumn leaves and a
minty hint of camphor.
Palate: Moderate-plus to full-bodied, dry, with ripe cherry and cassis mixed with baking
spice on entry joined by cedar and oak on the mid-palate with complex savory, herbal
elements. The finish is long, balanced and clean, with returning red and black fruit and
perfectly proportioned, fine, mouth-filling tannins. The 2016 JUSTIFICATION is elegant with a
perfect balance of fruit, savory and textural elements making is a versatile food pairing wine.
To prove this, try it with a wide range of dishes from Rotissierie Chicken, or Duck Confit, to
Entrecote Bordelaise et pomme frites, a classic regional dish from Bordeaux of pan seared
steak with a red wine shallot and thyme pan sauce served with crispy fries.
