1990 Groth Cabernet Sauvignon

Groth's regular cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon offers the classic Groth style - sweet, almost intensely opulent fruit flavors, silky tannins, and hedonistic mouthfuls of ripe, herb, coffee, and cassis-flavored Cabernet fruit. The expansive 1990, which has had 15% Merlot added, is a near-termer, with low acidity, satiny smooth, rich flavors, and gobs of toffee, mocha, and cassis in its bouquet. Cabernet lovers should find this flattering wine immensely appealing. One can only imagine how impressive Groth's 1990 Reserve will be in light of how tasty this regular cuvee has turned out.
