Justin’s 2015 cab shows just how far you can go with a $25 wine, that you needn’t resort to massive amounts of doctoring and additives to create a palatable bottling. The wine is lush with plums and currants, with a squeeze of blackberry jam, winding from there into notes of fresh-baked cinnamon rolls, lavender, and lemony tea leaf. The finish is harmonious and fulfilling, with hints of figs and a light astringency. Drinking well above its weight class.
