Great photo of Josh Phelps, founder of Grounded Wine Company.

Grounded Wine Company

September 27, 2024

Josh Phelps has deep roots in the California wine community. Raised in a winemaking family, he was exposed to the industry from a young age. He continued to build his knowledge of the business through college, selling wine, working harvests, and creating wine for friends with his father, Chris Phelps.

He helped form Grounded Wine Company, a value wine brand that has been making some really nice wines. The new releases I tasted were from Napa and Paso Robles. I really enjoyed the Rhone style blend the 2022 Public Radio Red Wine (OB, 90) which is rich and filled with bright red fruits. Lear more at https://www.groundedwineco.com and here are my reviews of the new wines by Grounded Wine Company.

2022 Steady State Cabernet Sauvignon- The 2022 Steady state shows pencil lead and cassis on the nose alongside shades of blackberry compote. The palate is fresh and deep with good texture and richness. Enjoy now and over the next eight years. Drink 2024-2032- 90

2022 Public Radio Red Wine- A Rhone-inspired blend, the 2022 Public Radio Red Wine delivers juicy red fruits on the palate with orange peel, salty soils and shades of smoked meats on the palate. Rich and slightly sweet, enjoy now. Drink 2024-2030- 90
