NEW YORK, May 22, 2012 — The guy that taught you to play hardball probably doesn't need another tie this Father's Day. Instead, how about quality time with you and the baseball greats you both grew up watching? California wine producer Josh Cellars invites you to post a tribute to your dad on www.facebook.com/JoshCellars for a chance to win a trip for two to a Major League Baseball Fantasy Camp.

The Fantasy Camp Sweepstakes offers a grand prize of travel, accommodations, and camp participation for two people – for, say, you and your dad. This is fantasy camp, so no baseball experience required – just a love of the game. There will be plenty of Hall of Famers in the lineup to score some batting tips. The online tributes can be funny, poignant, photos or poems; it's about sharing how great your dad is with family and friends. Tributes will be accepted through June 30 and featured weekly; the winner will be selected in early July.
"My dad's name was also Joseph, but his buddies called him Josh. He was a great guy, and as a winemaker, I couldn't think of a better way to pay tribute to him. I make this wine with growers and farmers that I call my friends. It's bold and expressive, but approachable and unassuming, just like my dad," said award-winning winemaker Joseph Carr.
Josh Cellars wines are produced by Napa Valley vintner Joseph Carr and are sourced from the North Coast appellation of California (which includes Napa, Sonoma, and Mendocino Counties). Josh Cellars offers a rich Cabernet Sauvignon ($14.99) and a classic Chardonnay ($14.99). They are sold nationwide.
"My dad is a classic American success story. From his first job in a railyard at age 16, he started and ran his own business, and even became mayor of his hometown. He raised a happy family and loved spending time with his buddies. This is a wine I know he'd be proud to drink with them. And it's a great wine to toast any dad on Father's Day," said Carr. www.josephcarrwine.com
