Josh Cellars 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon, North Coast, Joseph Carr
When Joseph Carr wanted to create a second wine after his famed Napa Cabernet he worked with vineyard owner Tom Larson and sourced a high altitude vineyard in the Red Hills appellation. Organically grown and sustainably farmed for 10 years, the vineyard is in a region that sits at the highest section between the Mayacamas and Vaca mountains. An eastern facing slope above 1,200 feet brings full sunlight that's tempered by the cool, cool nights. Grapes ripen slowly and fully, with richness and complexity. The wine is vinified just like his Napa Cab and then aged in French and American oak 16 months. It shows bold flavors of black currant, black cherry and spice with supple tannins and a lingering finish. A seriously good value!

      Comments about Josh Cellars 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon, North Coast, Joseph Carr:

      How could I not like a wine named after our Wine Director?!? Actually it's very possible as we taste hundreds of wines trying to find the best ones to bring to our customers. But this one stands out even beyond the name! Lots of supple black fruit with hints of vanilla and spice from oak treatment. For under $15 a true value Cab that comes out of the bottle ready to drink.

      • Pairs Well With:
      • Beef, Pizza and Pasta

      Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

      A very nice, smooth, approachable Cab that paired very well with NY Strip steak. A good everyday wine that could also be enjoyed by itself.
