2007 Domaine La Grave vin de pays des hauts de badens

Taste: 5
Value: 5
Price: ?$15

I'm pretty sure I bought this at a wine tasting, but can't for the life of me remember how much it cost.  My usual price is <$15, so that's a safe bet.  Now, I'm not typically fond of French wines as they sit flat on my palate.  I do know they pair magically with food, so I try to keep that in mind.  This wine never made it to the food, but it was shared with my friend Sonnet for her birthday.
This is a FANTASTIC cab for the "I don't like cabs" wine drinker, a statement backed up my my friend Sonnet.  This was rich, without being overly big or tannic, and had a nice long finish.  Would definitely buy again.
