About this bottle

Josh Cellars Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon spends a period finishing in barrels that previously held bourbon, adding a layer of char and warmth to a fairly standard California Cabernet base. The 2018 shows dark fruit, oak, and a hint of bourbon sweetness on the nose, with a full-bodied palate carrying blackberry, cherry, and a touch of vanilla from the barrel. Tannins are moderate rather than gripping, and the finish is smooth and lingering. It's a Cabernet aimed at drinkers who like a little extra sweetness and spice from barrel finishing rather than a classic, oak-neutral style.

How to drink Josh Cellars Bourbon Barrel Cabernet Sauvignon

Pour it at room temperature in a standard red wine glass - no decanting required given the moderate tannins. It's built for grilled or smoked meats, where the barrel's char and vanilla notes echo what's happening on the grill.

What does bourbon barrel finishing add?
