Rich aromas of sweet baked blackberries and dried figs are followed by warming notes of vanilla, butterscotch, cinnamon, allspice and clove. On the palate, the wine shows concentrated, focused plum and blackberry fruit, enhanced by plush tannins and fresh acidity. Dark fruit and toasted spice flavors linger through the finish of this ripe, energetic and beautifully structured Cabernet.

About Joseph Carr Winery

In 2009, New York Times writer Eric Asimov proclaimed Joseph Carr a “producer to watch,” ranking his wines alongside the likes of Far Niente, Clos du Val, Heitz, Grgich Hills and Rubicon. Mr. Asimov continued his praise of Joseph Carr wines, calling them “wines of balance and restraint.”

After 10 years serving as a world-class sommelier followed by ten years as an international industry executive, Joseph Carr set out on his own in 2005 to form his family-owned wine company. It was, as Joseph Carr says, “a chance to follow a dream.” Joseph continues to work with many of the associates he has met throughout his long career, all with a shared passion and desire to produce world class wines. Influenced by the wines of Bordeaux and Burgundy, Joseph Carr’s winemaking philosophy is balance, sophistication and approachability; an old-world style producer, but distinctly Californian, sourcing Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Merlot from select vineyards in the most renowned regions of the Napa Valley
