2019 Groth Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley-Oakville

Winemaker Notes: Dark ruby in color, the Oakville Cabernet opens with aromas of sweet vanilla and allspice, followed by black currants, ripe plums and a savory hint of anise seed. The palate has a smooth entry, building to a big, full mouthfeel with firm tannins a juicy, crisp acidity. Dark fruits flood the mid-palate in waves of blackberry and cassis. The finish is pleasantly dry and slightly spicy.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Vinous - "Classic Napa Cabernet notes of red and black currants, ripe tobacco, violets, and cedary oak emerge from the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville, a medium-bodied, elegant, balanced, outstanding 2019 that’s perfect for drinking over the coming 10-12 years or so."


Jeb Dunnuck - "Juicy and fresh, with a good racy edge to the mix of raspberry and red currant coulis, with hints of anise, red tea and sassafras. Shows nice energy and focus throughout. Drink now through 2030. 24,000 cases made."
