One of the world's most iconic reds, the legendary Opus 1 is a joint venture between the Mondavi and Rothschild winemaking dynasties, produced from a futuristic winery in California's Napa Valley. A Cabernet blend of the highest quality with rich, silky black fruits and great ageing potential.
"A blend of 77.5% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot, 8% Merlot, 5% Cabernet Franc and 1.5% Malbec, the Opus One 2016 Proprietary Red Wine was recently bottled in July and August 2018. Very deep purple-black, the nose reveals profound notions of chocolate-covered cherries, crème de cassis, blueberry compote and licorice with touches of tobacco, cedar chest, Sichuan pepper, eucalyptus and violets. Full-bodied, super concentrated and packed with black and blue fruits, the palate is built like a brick house with firm, ripe, finely grained tannins and oodles of freshness, finishing long and perfumed. This a very decadent expression of Opus One with a provocatively effortless harmoniousness that is truly difficult to resist." 97+ / 100 Lisa Perrotti-Brown MW, Wine Advocate
