The 2005 Justification, a St.-Emilion look-alike, is a blend of 64% Cabernet Franc and 36% Merlot. Its dense ruby/purple color is followed by subtle notes of bay leaf, blue and black fruits, and graphite. Medium-bodied with broad, savory flavors, considerable elegance, and a spicy finish, it should drink well for 5-10 years.
