Der Kultwein Opus One aus dem Napa Valley in Kalifornien ist ein kräftiger und erlesener Rotwein, der hauptsächlich aus Cabernet Sauvignon besteht. Opus One wird 18 Monate in Fässern gelagert und dann für weitere 18 Monate in der Flasche gereift, bevor er auf den Markt gebracht wird. Opus One ist der gemeinsame Traum von Robert Mondavi und Baron Philippe de Rothschild, die beide grosse Weine in Kalifornien kreieren wollten.

Wineadvocate

Winemaker Michael Silacci commented that usually the blends are finished in January or February after the vintage. This year, with the 2019s, he was still tweaking the blend, but he did mention that this is "pretty close to the final blend." Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2019 Opus One leaps from the glass with notes of Black Forest cake, Morello cherries, mulberries and fresh blackcurrants plus hints of licorice, wilted roses, Sichuan pepper and iron ore. Full-bodied, the palate is jam-packed with juicy black, blue and red fruits, framed by velvety tannins and background freshness, finishing on a compelling earthy/mineral note. Tasted as a barrel sample, this is a truly magnificent Opus One in the making! - LP 03/2021

Vinous

The 2019 Opus One is a dense, beautifully layered wine, but it is also quite restrained. That should serve it well in time. Tasted next to the 2018, the 2019 possesses a bit more textural nuance and body, yet it has all the classicism that is such an Opus One signature. Bright floral accents linger on the sublime finish. - AG 01/2022

Suckling

Suckling - The purity of fruit is really something else here, with currants and fresh flowers, such as violets and roses. Flower stems as well. Fantastic length and structure to the wine, with tightness and focus. Wonderful fruit. Graceful. A blend of 78% cabernet sauvignon, 8% merlot, 7% petit verdot, 6% cabernet franc and 1% malbec. Try after 2028. - JS 08/2022
