The 2021 Opus One greets the senses with a captivating bouquet of ripe blackberries, cassis, and plums, elegantly woven with floral hints of violet and lavender. Subtle layers of c edar, vanilla, and dark chocolate emerge from its well-integrated oak, while a whisper of graphite and dried herbs adds earthy sophistication. On the palate, the wine is both opulent and refined, offering a silky cascade of black cherry, blueberry, and mocha, framed by polished tannins and vibrant acidity. The finish is remarkably persistent, leaving impressions of espresso, spiced vanilla, and a touch of smokiness—a testament to its meticulous balance and aging potential. Though approachable now with decanting, this vintage will continue to evolve gracefully over the next two decades, showcasing the artistry of Opus One’s Bordeaux-inspired craftsmanship. Show more
