95 Robert Parker
Opus One had picked 91% of their fruit before the fires started in 2017, and only two lots were eliminated from consideration. The 2017 Opus One, bottled in July 2019, is a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8.5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4.5% Merlot and 1% Malbec. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, it slowly grows on the nose, revealing compelling notes of baked black cherries, mulberries, black raspberries, warm cassis and blackberry pie with nuances of spice cake, yeast extract, tapenade, licorice and dusty soil with a waft of wild sage. Medium-bodied, the palate has a lively skip in its step, featuring bags of juicy raspberry and cassis-laced fruit and a refreshing line, supported by ripe, plush tannins, finishing long and graceful.
95 Vinous
A remarkable wine for the year, the 2017 Opus One is a dense, full-throttle beauty. Plush fruit and soft, silky contours give the 2017 its racy personality. Exotic, beautifully perfumed and impeccable in its balance, Opus One is one of the most complete wines of the vintage. In 2017, Opus One has a distinctly red-toned fruit profile that distinguishes it from the surrounding vintages.
93 Wine Spectator
This features currant and plum fruit, with tobacco, loam and singed savory notes, maintaining range and driving through the finish. The structure is fine-grained, delivering a lingering hint of acidity. A more subtle expression of Cabernet. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Best from 2022 through 2036. 27,800 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.
