Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
An approachable blend with aromas of rich, dark fruit, and baking spices on the nose yielding to fresh plum, blackberry, violet, dried fig, vanilla bean, and Chinese five-spice.
The wine is juicy with plum and blackberry flavors, prominently layered with smoky and sappy maple oak, roasted almonds, and hazelnuts. The Josh Cellars Cabernet finishes long with fine, firm tannins.
Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot. Blended & bottled by Joseph Carr. "My father's name was Joseph, as is mine, but his friends just called him Josh." Growers, that Josh calls friends, all lend a hand in this "winemakers wine," what they jokingly refer to as a "vin de garage"—a handcrafted wine they made just for themselves. A wine that is bold and expressive, but unassuming and approachable. It's funny how these characteristics seem to remind Josh of someone that he knew. It's a wine he made for his family, his friends, and a man he called Dad.
