From the heart of Napa Valley, Opus One continues to represent harmony between Bordeaux tradition and California innovation.

Tasting Notes

The wine opens with expressive aromas of blackberry, cassis, and forest floor, accented by hints of tobacco leaf, graphite, and cedar. On the palate, the 2012 is layered and precise, with flavors of dark cherry, mocha, and anise. Silky tannins and a polished texture lead to a long, graceful finish that underscores its elegance and longevity.

Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The iconic 2012 Proprietary Red Opus One is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, 6% Merlot and 2% Malbec aged 18 months in French oak. A classy, complex, suave and savory 2012 Opus One, with notes of toasty oak and crème de cassis. This Pauillac lookalike, made by the staff at Mouton Rothschild, is a beauty. They have continued to strengthen the quality of wine and seem to have produced a brilliant, world-class wine. I imagine the 2013 may even eclipse this, but this 2012 is one of their great ones, with a seamless integration of acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood all present in this beautiful, full-bodied wine that should drink well for 25-30 years. Reviewed by Robert M. Parker, Jr. Issue date: December 30, 2015. Drinking window: 2017-2045.

Vinous

The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is supple and radiant throughout, with gorgeous suppleness and purity to the flavors. Sweet red cherry, hard candy, raspberry wild flowers and cinnamon are some of the notes that grace the palate. Racy and forward, yet classically mid-weight in structure, the 2012 is likely to drink well pretty much upon release. Once quite rich, the 2012 is developing into a wine of finesse and open-knit sensuality. Reviewed by Antonio Galloni. Tasting date: September 2015. Drinking window: 2017-2032.
