Butler also shared information about Josh Cellars wine. Josh Cellars was founded by Napa Valley vintner Joseph Carr with the sole purpose of offering distinct, high-quality California wines. In 2007, inspired by the rich, elegant, and approachable Cabernet he found in the Red Hills of California’s Lake County, he launched Josh Cellars.

The wines encapsulate a unique style: bold and complex, but balanced and approachable. And the script on the front label of Josh is Joseph’s mother’s handwriting!

You can find Josh Cellars wine at Deutsch Family Wine & Spirits.
