Tasting notes
Good deep red. Expressive aromas of redcurrant, mocha, smoke, leather and spices, with subtle balsamic suggestions of cedar and sandalwood. Plush, layered and moderately sweet, offering a fine-grained texture to its slightly medicinal flavors of black raspberry, menthol and spices. The serious finish features a restrained sweetness and substantial, slightly tough tannins that will soften further with more time in bottle. (ST)

What begins as an attractively dark ruby/purple-colored wine with a spicy, peppery, vanillin, and black currant-scented nose quickly sags in the middle, with a hollowness and lack of extract. The finish offers tannin, without the necessary glycerin and extract. The 1994 Groth Cabernet Sauvignon will last for 7-8 years. Tel. (707) 944-0290; Fax (707) 944-8932
