| 1997 Groth Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Oakville, Napa Valley, California WB Rating: 82 Alcohol by volume: 13.8% Price at time of purchase: $42.00 (Current Release) Type: Cabernet / Bordeaux Principal varietal(s): Cabernet A major disappointment. Simple, varietally correct aromas and flavors, but no grip, depth or complexity, and with a short and somewhat tannic and bitter finish. The wine is young and may improve, but at this point holds very little interest and is insanely overpriced for its quality. We're sure it will be called "elegant," but there's a big difference between "elegant" and "insipid." Are we missing something here?? - WB Team 2000-12-01 [Back] |
