Groth Oakcross Napa Valley 2020
95 Points, Wine Enthusiast
The 2020 vintage continues its legacy of excellence, earning 95 points and establishing itself as one of the standout wines of the year. Interestingly, while this blend is 81% Cabernet Sauvignon – enough to be labeled a Cabernet – Groth chose to classify it as a Proprietary Red. This decision underscores the unique character of their prized Oakcross bottling and their commitment to showcasing the vineyard’s distinct expression. Labeling it as an Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon would command a higher price, but this decision speaks to Groth’s commitment to authenticity and terroir expression.
