Score 88/100 · Drink 2018-2020, William Kelley, Wine Advocate, May 2018

A blend of 55% Cabernet Franc and 45% Merlot, the 2014 Justification offers up a sweet, sun-kissed nose of plum preserve, blueberry pie and toasty new oak. On the palate, it's rich and jammy, with a chewy payload of tannin and extract and chewy, baked finish.

Score 89/100 · Jeb Dunnuck, Aug 2017

The 2014 Justification from winemaker Scott Shirley is made from Cabernet Franc and Merlot and it spent 21 months in 50% new French oak. It offers notes of red currants, toasted bread, vanilla and spice in a medium to full-bodied, polished and elegant style that should evolve gracefully for a decade.
