Joel Gott 815 2021 | The $15-$20 Cabernet Everyone Buys. But Is It Worth It?

from Stop Wasting Your Wine · host Stop Wasting Your Wine

This week we crack open the 2021 Joel Gott 815 Cabernet Sauvignon, a bottle you can find just about anywhere. In this episode, we dive into what it means to take on “big brand week,” share our first impressions of a California Cab at this price point, and talk through where it lands in our wine ranking system.Along the way, we swap out the name of our learning segment, "wine nuggets”, for the much better sounding “wine drops,” dig into California’s climate and oak choices, and discuss the food pairings that actually make sense with this style of wine. And for the first time, we try out a brand-new game: Wine Vibes.Is this Cab a wine fridge pick, a backup bottle, or just a casual sipper? Tune in and see where we landed.Connect with the show.
