A masterwork of Bordeaux blending that defines Napa Valley's pinnacle achievement.
The 2015 Opus One emerges from the glass with aristocratic poise, revealing layers of concentrated cassis and black cherry wrapped in mocha-tinged oak. Cedar spice mingles with graphite minerality on the nose, while tobacco leaf adds earthy sophistication. The palate delivers remarkable density without heavinessโdark chocolate notes weave through the fruit core, supported by fine-grained tannins that promise decades of evolution. Espresso and vanilla flourishes on the finish demonstrate masterful barrel integration. This vintage captures both immediate pleasure and profound cellaring potential, marking it as one of the property's defining expressions.
๐ท You seek the ultimate expression of New World Bordeaux blending for life's most significant celebrations.
Pairs with: Dry-aged ribeye with herb crust, Braised short ribs with root vegetables, Roasted rack of lamb with rosemary, Aged hard cheeses and dark chocolate
