Description

Josh Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Bourbon Barrel Reserve

Bourbon barrel aging imparts notes of cedar and a touch of caramel with a subtle hint of bourbon, which blend harmoniously with flavors of baked black fruits and hints of barbequed meats. The nose is rich and complex with notes of backed black fruit, dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee and sweet burnt toffee. ~Winery Notes

Aged in Kentucky bourbon barrels, this deep red Cabernet exudes caramel, vanilla and smooth whiskey flavors alongside the classic dark berry and chocolate. With layers of toasty oak and ripe tannins, this a rich, bold choice that tastes amazing alongside heavily sauced barbeque like pulled pork or smoked brisket.
