  The Wine Advocate
  "Groth turned in a superb performance with its 1985 regular cuvee of Cabernet Sauvignon. It offers beautiful, sweet, ripe, flashy, black-cherry and cassis fruit, toasty oak, and a subtle, herbaceous note. Rich, opulent, and fully mature, this velvety-textured, explosively fruity wine should be drunk over the next 5-10 years. Given the superb performances in 1983, 1984, 1985, and 1986, I wonder why Groth´s Cabernets have become so herbaceous and vegetal in recent vintages since?"

  "Lovely perfumed, floral and cherry-berry aromas belie its age. Supple and graceful, this is a delicate wine that has shed most of its tannins yet retained a tasty core of fruit. Best soon, as the plum, floral and berry flavors are tasty.--1985 California Cabernet retrospective. Drink now."
