2020 Josh Cellars Bourbon Barrel Aged Reserve Zinfandel
#24-2024
Zinfandel is often paired with hamburgers or barbecue, and sometimes, pasta dishes. Which is what we chose for our Macaroni, Beef and Sausage Casserole, with cheese and marinara sauce. The tangy and spicy Josh Cellars Zin was a great match for our taste- tingling casserole!
A powerful nose leads to rich, jammy flavors of blackberry and raspberry, with a touch of spice, backed by pungent undertones. The lingering finish definitely compliments barbecue and other flavorful foods. The alcohol content is 14.5%. and Norm's score is 88.
Wine reviewer Natalie Maclean, had this to say; "Aged in Bourban barrels and perfect to pair with smoky, sticky and saucy ribs from the BBQ." So go ahead and get the grill ready, the 4th is just around the corner!
score: 88
price : $15 - $19
