Country: US / Reserve
Variety: Cabernet Sauvignon California
Winery: Groth / Oakville
This wine is sourced from a unique block in the heart of the appellation and the producer’s 165-acre estate, rich in sedimentary rock fragments of quartz and fossils. It’s lush and soft on the palate, with leather, ripe red berry and cassis flavors. The tannins are strong and wrapped tenaciously around the fruit, requiring further time in bottle; drink 2020–2028.
