Josh Cellars Merlot Wine, 750 ml

The bouquet of Josh Cellars Merlot is complex with violets, sweet plums, rosemary and vanilla bean. On the palate, the wine is velvety and soft in texture, with flavors of juicy plums, blackberries and Bing cherries. It culminates in a long cocoa powder finish and fine tannins. Sourced from premium wine-growing regions throughout California, including Sonoma and Mendocino counties. Pair with tomato-based dishes and rich chocolate desserts.

Josh Cellars was created in 2007 by vintner Joseph Carr as a tribute to his dad, Josh. The brand started with one varietal, Cabernet Sauvignon, and today features a diverse portfolio of well-balanced and delicious wines made to exacting standards. Sourced from across California’s great winegrowing regions, every vintage represents a labor of love, a commitment to quality, and a very personal promise to make great wine, in honor of Josh.

Joseph discovered a passion for wine at an early age, starting off as a wine steward at a local restaurant in upstate New York, where he was raised. He spent a decade serving as a world-class sommelier followed by another decade as a wine industry executive. After years of hard work, he left it all behind to pursue his dream: starting his own wine company, making wines from California. Today, he lives with his dog Molly and frequently gets visits from his daughter Cailen at their home in Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
