A Nappa masterpiece! So refined. Deep and vibrant ruby red in colour. On the nose, it boasts a complex bouquet of black fruit, cassis, and a hint of tobacco. The palate is well-structured and elegant, with flavours of dark chocolate, espresso, and a touch of vanilla, all complemented by a solid tannic structure. The wine has a long and persistent finish, with a subtle hint of oak and a touch of spice. Overall, 2016 Opus One is a superb and sophisticated wine that showcases the best of Napa Valley winemaking.
