JUSTIN Savant 2020 is a full-bodied red blend of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon from JUSTIN Vineyards & Winery in Paso Robles, California, bottled at 15% ABV.
Savant shows the depth Paso Robles is known for, with ripe fruit balanced by savoury notes, in an approachable, food-friendly style. Syrah leads with dark fruit and spice, while Cabernet Sauvignon adds structure.
In the glass the 2020 shows a purple-ruby core and thick tears, a sign of its richness.
JUSTIN, founded by Justin Baldwin on the west side of Paso Robles, is one of the region's most celebrated wineries, famous for its Bordeaux- and Rhône-inspired blends.
Good wine rewards a little care in serving. Whites and rosés show best chilled to around 45 to 50°F, while reds are at their most expressive slightly below room temperature, around 60 to 65°F. Opening the bottle and letting it breathe for a few minutes, or pouring it into a decanter, helps the aromas open up.
