Description
Opus One est un vin culte de la Napa Valley en Californie. Composé en large majorité de cabernet sauvignon, c'est un vin de garde puissant et racé. Opus One est élevé 18 mois en barriques puis affiné 18 mois en bouteille avant d'être commercialisé. Opus One est le rêve commun de Robert Mondavi et du Baron Philippe de Rothschild, qui souhaitaient tous deux créer de grands vins en Californie.

Notes de dégustation

Vinous

Bright, dark red with ruby highlights. Very dark aromas of black cherry, cassis, blueberry and licorice. Then rather plush, sweet and full for Opus One, conveying a chocolatey ripeness to its dark berry flavors. Finishes with smooth tannins that build without going dry. This wine was broad and smooth from the outset. Today it's a generous mouthful but a bit clunky compared to some more recent vintages. This was reportedly the first vintage to include a significant percentage of Petit Verdot, and that may explain the wine's emphasis on black and blue fruits. (14.5% alcohol) - ST 03/2019

Suckling

Aromas of orange peel, currants, olives and subtle rosemary. Full body with a beautiful balance of fine tannins and a fresh finish. Super-refined and beautiful. Better in 2015 but just drinking beautifully now. This 81% cabernet sauvignon, 9% cabernet franc, 4% merlot, 4% petit verdot and 2% malbec.
