Justin Cabernet Sauvignon is a Bordeaux-styled Cabernet from Paso Robles, built on the region's limestone-rich soils and warm climate. The grapes are hand-picked and sorted by the berry, and the wine spends more than a year in small oak barrels to build depth and complexity.
Paso Robles gives this Cabernet its ripe, generous fruit and structured backbone, a classic California expression of the variety with Old World influence.
