To best enjoy Josh Cellars Pinot Noir, it is recommended to serve it at a slightly cooler temperature than other red wines, typically between 55-60°F (13-16°C). This temperature range helps to accentuate its fruity aromas and delicate structure. Open the bottle about 30 minutes before serving to allow it to breathe, which can further enhance its complexity and soften any tannins. It can be served in a standard wine glass, allowing the aromas to concentrate.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to bolder red wines like Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir is generally lighter in body and has softer tannins. Its fruit profile is often more red-fruit-forward rather than dark fruit. This makes it a more approachable option for those who prefer less intense red wines.

How to keep the rest
After opening, recork the bottle tightly and store it upright in a cool, dark place, such as a refrigerator. It is best consumed within 2-3 days to maintain its freshness and vibrant flavors. Unopened bottles should be stored on their side in a cool, dark cellar or wine fridge.
