Fantastic aromas that are complex and complete with blackcurrants, blueberries and herbs, such as basil and bay leaf. But always subtle. Full-bodied yet linear and very refined with a very persistent finish. It shows drive and brightness. So refined at the end. Needs at least three to five years to come together. <br/>
98 Robert Parker
Deep garnet-purple colored, the 2016 Opus One offers up bold, expressive black and blue fruits: warm black plums, black cherries, blackcurrants and wild blueberries with a beautiful undercurrent of lilacs, roses, fertile loam, underbrush and Indian spices. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is a tightly coiled spring ready to explode, with fantastic tension and wonderfully ripe, very fine-grained tannins, finishing very long with a mineral lift.

A focused, restrained style, with a steady beam of fresh red and black currant preserve flavors, laced with bay leaf, cedar and tobacco notes. An iron edge pierces the finish, while the fruit keeps pace. A bit more classically backward than its Oakville peers, so tuck this away in the cellar. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Best from 2020 through 2038. 21,900 cases made. — JM

Opus One Winery
Les Rothschild, indiscutablement l’une des familles vigneronnes européennes les plus connues, se sont associés aux grands pionniers vitivinicoles du Nouveau Monde, les Mondavi, pour créer ce domaine californien mythique. Joint venture initié en 1978 entre Robert Mondavi de la Napa Valley et le Baron Philippe de Rothschild du Château Mouton Rothschild à Bordeaux, Opus One se classe désormais parmi les domaines les plus en vue du vignoble californien. Son premier millésime, le 1979, a été mis sur le marché en 1981 au prix alors inouï de 50$ la bouteille. L’assemblage à dominante cabernet se prénommait Napamedoc, mais depuis 1982 il a pris pour nom Opus One pour mettre en exergue les liens entre le Nouveau et l’Ancien Monde. Ce vin icône réunit en réalité cinq cépages : cabernet-sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, malbec et petit verdot. Conjugué à la vision avant-gardiste du duo fondateur, il a valu au domaine Opus One un véritable statut de culte, fer de lance de la Napa Valley.
