APPEARANCE
Dark ruby red.

NOSE
The 2016 Opus One is remarkably elegant and bright offering sumptuous aromas of fresh red and blue fruit, baking spices and vanilla, and a delicate fragrance of spring florals, augmented by notes of black olive.

PALATE
Juicy flavors of black cherry, blackberry and cassis flood the palate and fine-grained tannins deliver a delightfully round structure. Harmonious, the flavors linger to create an enduring finish.

AGEING
In new oak barrels for about 18 months.

PAIRING
Throughout the meal, Opus One is a wine that goes well with large meat dishes, perhaps enhanced with a sprinkling of fine black truffle.
