Opus One 2011

A towering expression that marries Napa muscle with Bordeaux-inspired restraint beautifully.

The 2011 Opus One opens with an intoxicating bouquet of blackcurrant liqueur and roasted espresso beans, layered with whispers of cedar shavings and pipe tobacco. On the palate, this vintage reveals its architectural complexity through waves of concentrated black cherry and cassis, seamlessly woven with vanilla-laced oak and bitter dark chocolate. The tannins possess a velvety grip that speaks to meticulous vineyard selection and patient cellar work. Mid-palate richness gives way to a prolonged finish where tobacco leaf and mocha notes linger with aristocratic poise. This vintage demonstrates remarkable balance between New World intensity and Old World sophistication, promising graceful evolution through 2035.
