2012 Opus One

Deep in colour, this wine opens with captivating aromatics of sweet pipe tobacco, leather, crème de cassis, anise, and Turkish coffee. Despite its density and intensity, there is a refined, almost feminine elegance to the bouquet.

The palate is beautifully textured, offering a plush, luxurious mouthfeel balanced by impressive tension. Flavours of crème de cassis, anise, Turkish coffee, and milk chocolate unfold with depth and precision, showcasing both power and finesse.

A striking expression of Napa Valley at its finest, this wine is both intense and elegant. While approachable in its youth, it benefits greatly from extended decanting—allow at least two hours to fully раскры its complexity and character.
