Oakville Neighbors Series: 2021 Game Farm Cabernet

Groth
Winery Exclusive

275 cases produced

Launched with the 2018 vintage, Groth’s Oakville Neighbors Series explores the diversity of Oakville Cabernet through single-vineyard grower lots that stand on their own as a distinct expression of the appellation.

The Groth family, along with retired Winemaker Emeritus Michael Weis, has worked with Alex Vyborny, whose family owns the vineyard from which the Game Farm Cabernet Sauvignon is sourced, for nearly 35 years. Alex is a well-known and beloved vineyard manager who has been here since 1973, overseeing many of Napa Valley and Sonoma County’s most prestigious vineyards. He is a farmer through and through, as down to earth as they come and a terrific partner whose handshake is as good as gold. He farms his family’s Oakville vineyard with his son, Ben.

Tasting Notes

Tasting Notes

Aromas of crushed fresh raspberry, vanilla custard, boysenberry, rhubarb, ripe tomato, paprika, and brown sugar oatmeal leap from the glass. On the palate, a melody of flavors including rosemary, strawberry reduction sauce, hints of tobacco and the succulent allure of juicy red fruit are wrapped up perfectly in velvet tannins. — Director of Winegrowing Ted Henry

Vineyard

This single-vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon comprises select blocks from the Vyborny family’s vineyard in the prestigious southeast corner of the Oakville AVA along Silverado Trail, across from the Rector Reservoir Dam below the Vaca mountains. In fact, rocks from this property were used to build the dam, which tells you something about the vineyard’s soil composition. This is a prized area of Oakville, with prestigious neighbors and crumbly, red iron soils sloughed off the Vaca range.

Pairing

This wine’s savory herbal notes and fine tannin make it a versatile Cabernet for food pairing. It’s an excellent match for a classic steak seared on the grill, herb-roasted lamb chops or grilled portobello mushrooms with feta.
