Deep garnet colored, the 2013 Opus One needs a little swirling before exploding with preserved black and blue fruits—blueberry compote, blackberry pie and blackcurrant cordial—giving way to notes of unsmoked cigars, new leather, beef drippings and menthol with wafts of roasted rosemary and rose oil. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is both powerful and ethereal, charged with energy and backed up by profound black fruits, supported with plush tannins and seamless freshness, finishing very long and beautifully perfumed.
About this wine
Opus One
We are pleased to offer a string of vintages from the legendary Napa Valley producer Opus One, specifically the vintages from 2013 to 2019. As you know, Opus One is located in the Californian town of Oakville in Napa Valley and is the result of the successful collaboration between Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Mouton Rothschild and Robert Mondavi, probably the most famous winemaker ever from Napa Valley.
Napa Valley
The Napa Valley wine region in California, USA, has been known since the 1960s for producing exceptional wine due to the area's Mediterranean climate. The area is especially known for wines with Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay grapes, which are rich in body and elegance. The terroir, including especially the climate and soil types, are ideal for growing Cabernet Sauvignon of the highest quality.
