About the Wine
At JUSTIN, we pride ourselves on crafting wines in an elegant Bordeaux style, like our ISOSCELES and JUSTIFICATION blends. But we’re equally passionate about exploring the potential of other distinctive varieties grown here in Paso Robles. Our past efforts include SAVANT and FOCUS, and we continue these offerings with our RIGHT ANGLE vintages. The 2024 RIGHT ANGLE is an expressive, eclectic blend of Cabernet, Petite Sirah, Malbec, and Petit Verdot, creating an intriguing mix of dark fruit, spice, and savory elements, all supported by a rich texture that’s sure to please red wine lovers looking for something different at a great price point.

Body
Appearance
Clear and vivid in the glass, with a bright ruby core of moderate concentration that lightens at the rim with violet hues, showing moderate staining and tears.
Aroma
Intensely aromatic, with expressive notes of ripe blackberry, olallieberry pie, and black currant layered with hints of herbs de Provence and tobacco leaf.
Palate
Full-bodied and vibrant, the palate opens with concentrated flavors of red currant, candied black cherry, and pomegranate. A structured midpalate reveals gritty tannins balanced by fresh acidity, with sustained dark fruit and subtle dark chocolate notes adding depth. The finish is long and layered, marked by touches of vanilla, clove, and barrel spice.
