Grounded By Josh Phelps 卡本內蘇維濃

Poured a glass last night and the deep fruit notes really came through without being jammy. It's smooth enough to drink on its own but has enough structure to stand up to a hearty steak. For the money, you’re getting a lot of complexity that you’d expect in a more expensive bottle.

I wasn’t expecting this much depth in a sub-$15 Cab—the dark fruit and cocoa notes really carry through the finish.

For the price, this pours way darker than I expected and the depth of fruit carries through every sip. It’s got that California cab richness without any harsh bite, making it easy to finish a glass (or two) with dinner.
