Groth...

...if young is probably pretty tight and needs some bottle age, as you well know.
We had an expensive cab tasting earlier this month (seemed a waste to drink such babies) and the 2010 Groth Reserve ($88 at Costco) finished 4th out of 6.
The winner was 2009 Altamura Napa ($65 to $85) which is pretty drinkable now.
They were all pretty good, though - the spread with 6 tasters was only 9 points from #1 to #6.
