Groth

“As a family, we are dedicated to producing the best wine that a vintage will allow. All of our resources, our property and the skills of our employees, are dedicated to this objective. We believe that if we make great wine, success will follow.” -Dennis Groth, Proprietor

Dennis and Judy Groth purchased 121 acres in Oakville in 1981 and one year later they established and crushed the first grapes for Groth Vineyards & Winery. By 1984, they were producing 30,000 cases of Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, and Sauvignon Blanc and were quickly gaining recognition as an outstanding producer coming out of Napa Valley.

Fast forward to the present and Groth is a continuously growing namesake in Oakville. With neighboring vineyards such as Plumpjack, Screaming Eagle, and Silver Oak, the winery has built a superior reputation for its Cabernet Sauvignon wines that are bold and true to the appellation. Benchmark Wine Group is honored to share the wonderful expression of Napa Valley that is Groth.

Tasting Notes

WSM93
Packed with red and black currant flavors, this wine has the cool, refreshing feel of the forest. Tannins frame the berry fruit, providing contrast in umami flavors of wood-ear mushrooms, both tannins and fruit lasting in a finely structured, luxurious finish. Balanced for ten years of age.
WE90
Young now, marked by hard tannins that accentuate the acidity. The flavors are forward and jammy, suggesting blackberries, cherries, orange zest and sweet, smoky cedar wood. Rough-hewn now, with an angular feeling, but should develop softness and roundness after 2012.
