2022 Oakcross Proprietary Red, Oakville

Collectible

Oakcross Proprietary Red represents our continued focus on exploring the potential of our Oakville Estate as well as the broader Oakville AVA. Oakcross was the original name given to our Oakville Estate Vineyard when it was planted in 1973, and after purchasing the property in 1981, Dennis and Judy Groth at one point considered using it as a brand name until a family member convinced them to use their own. As the name of this red blend, Oakcross symbolizes our foundation and the homesite of Groth Vineyards & Winery.

Tasting Notes

Vibrant aromas of blackcurrant, mixed berries, iron, rose petal, violet, cedar, dates, allspice, dried apple, cinnamon, and earth. The palate is layered with cocoa powder, lush dark plum, black pepper, pencil lead, lavender, blueberry, and sweet cigar. A smooth, supple finish with melted tannins enhances its elegance and depth.
