Production Methods

Josh Cellars Cabernet is made from hand-picked grapes processed at the peak of flavor development. The grapes used in this elegant blend all come from high-quality growing regions in California such as Sonoma, Mendocino and Lake Counties. The grapes are then crushed and cold soaked for a full day. Processes are followed to ensure the highest level of flavor extraction, including an extended maceration technique.

Giving Back
