• Wine Enthusiast: Red-cherry and light smoke aromas are fresh and charming on the nose of this bottling. The palate hits with bright flashes of raspberry and cherry, as sumac and star anise add intrigue and the acidity lingers long.

Producer Information

Josh Cellars is a Californian wine estate, producing a collection of both Bordeaux and Burgundian-style wines. sourcing grapes from a selection of vineyards in St Helena, Rutherford, Stags Leap District and Sonoma Coast. The estate was founded in 2007 by Joseph Carr, who named it after his father, a US Army soldier and a volunteer firefighter. Indeed, Josh Cellars is dedicated to raising money for volunteer firefighter organizations. The estate produces a range of predominantly varietal wines. The Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon was the inaugural wine from the brand, sourced from vineyards throughout Sonoma and Napa Valley. The latest innovation is the Bourbon Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon that spends two months aging in ex-bourbon barrels to impart cedar and caramel notes. Chardonnay grapes are sourced from cooler climates in the Mendocino and Monterey AVAs (American Viticultural Area).
