Winemaker Description
The Grounded by Josh Phelps Cabernet Sauvignon California 2024 is a practicing sustainable California Cab from the Phelps family — crafted with the same attention to detail that defines their storied winemaking heritage. Sourced from premium vineyards across California’s North and Central Coast interior valleys, this blend of 85.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 5.2% Merlot, 4.5% Petit Verdot, and 4.8% Petite Sirah is harvested at optimal ripeness, carefully fermented for balanced tannins, and aged in oak to preserve varietal integrity. 14% ABV.
The nose leads with heady aromas of black cherry, cassis, and licorice. On the palate, ripe blackberry, dusty cocoa, and sweet oak complement the silky texture throughout a long, aromatic finish.
Pairing Suggestions
- Classic: Grilled ribeye, lamb chops, or a slow-braised short rib.
- Casual: Burgers, BBQ brisket, or a hearty pasta Bolognese.
- Cheese: Aged cheddar, Gouda, or a sharp Manchego.

Lifted ripe black cherry and sweet cedar aromas welcome you to a rich, silky red grounded in freshly picked blackberry, exotic cocoa notes, and a long finish. Josh Phelps and his dad, Chris (formerly of Caymus), pair this with their famous Merlot burgers
Dark garnet red in color, the 2021 Grounded Cabernet Sauvignon leads with warm aromas of ripe black cherry, espresso, vanilla, and clove. The well-structured palate displays a round, luxurious mouthfeel and notes of cedar, forest floor, clove, and anise that extend through the generous finish.
Blend: 79.3% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10.8% Merlot, 6.5% Cabernet Franc, 3.4% Petit Verdot
James Suckling writes: Savory and spicy red with a plush, fruit-forward palate. The nose shows ripe red berry, crushed herb and crushed stone notes, following through to a medium body with a chalky texture and mellow fruit character. Drink now. - James Suckling 90
