Description:
A bold, full-bodied California Cabernet with rich flavors of blackberry, black currant, ripe plum and cranberry, layered with dark chocolate, vanilla, coffee and sweet burnt toffee. Finishing the wine for two months in charred bourbon barrels adds distinctive notes of caramel, brown spice, vanilla and subtle smoke, creating a robust Cabernet with rich tannins and a lingering finish.

Pairing Recommendation:
Excellent with Prime Ribeye, coffee-rubbed steak, smoked brisket, Wagyu burgers, BBQ or smoked vegetables. For Midtown Provisions, pair with a Prime Ribeye or Wagyu Burger. Josh Cellars specifically recommends coffee-rubbed steak and burgers.

Serve: 60–65°F. Allow approximately 20–30 minutes to breathe before serving.
