Opus One 2018 is a Bordeaux-style red blend from Oakville, Napa Valley. The 2018 blend is 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 6% Petit Verdot, 5% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc and 1% Malbec, all estate-grown in the Oakville AVA. Fermentation used 80% ambient yeast, followed by 18 days of maceration and 17 months in 100% new French oak barrels. The nose shows blackberry, cassis, boysenberry, violets, lilacs, rose petals, graphite, cinnamon and damp earth. The palate has crunchy black fruit, dark chocolate, orange zest, licorice and oolong tea, with firm, refined tannins and a long finish.
Tasting Notes
Profuse blackberry, warm cassis and ripe boysenberry, with violets, lilacs, rose petals, graphite, cinnamon stick and damp earth.
Juicy entry with crunchy blackcurrant, black plum and blueberry, plus dark chocolate, orange zest, licorice and oolong tea; medium to full-bodied with firm, refined grainy tannins and striking freshness.
Long and persistent, with smooth, round tannins, a soft creamy mouthfeel, and lingering cassis, dark chocolate and lead pencil supported by vibrant acidity.
