(Groth Cabernet Sauvignon) Group's #1 (my #3) – 26 pts; 2 1st place votes, 0 2nd place votes, 4 thirds, 0 last places – mature cherry Cab fruit, like a mature Pauillac to start with, turning to more black fruit in the glass; balsamic, sweet cherry palate with firm, sweet tannins; tangy medium-plus finish 89+ pts. (15% Merlot)

Musty on the nose. Still decent color and fruit, with nice finish. A pleasant surprise!
