Josh Phelps - sone of Joseph has done it!!! For 65 bucks you can get a high end caliber wine that is as good if not better than any 100 dollar California cab I have ever had. This is his 2015 Steady State red wine. Bouquet is rhubarb pie and soft purple violets. The beginning is dark fruits and berries followed by a mellow vanilla and chocolate mid palate. The finish comes very slow and delivers an Earthy tone with a mildly dry Finish. I am also drinking the Collusion 2016 blend from Washington and it is better for a fraction of the price - 22 bucks!!!!! Steady State rocks. But for the price, try the Collusion!!!!!!

The Steady State Red Wine Napa Valley 2015 is a Bordeaux-style blend made with 73% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, 8% Malbec, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot and 6% Petit Verdot.
Steady State is very dark and smells that way. Black berries, currant, anise and a trace of tar on the nose paint it, black. The palate is fruity, but serious, with a savory stripe cutting through the middle just barely on the tart side. Acidity is bright and the tannins are moderate, so it's drinkable as well as pairable.

First time for me. Mostly CS and a smattering if other Bordeaux grapes. Bright red fruit, dry tannic finish. $60ish. Gets it done but don’t go out of your way.
