2013 Opus One

Deep ruby in the glass, this wine opens with layered notes of blackcurrant and dark blackberry, supported by hints of toasted oak, cedar, and tobacco. The palate is rich and structured, with lively acidity and firm tannins giving shape and balance. Ripe, expressive fruit is complemented by a more classic, restrained backbone, leading into a long, refined finish with touches of coffee and cigar box. Well-suited for cellaring, with strong ageing potential.
