Tasting notes
Medium to deep garnet-purple coloured, it slowly grows on the nose, revealing compelling notes of baked black cherries, mulberries, black raspberries, warm cassis, and blackberry pie with nuances of spice cake, yeast extract, tapenade, liquorice, and dusty soil with a waft of wild sage. Medium-bodied, the palate has a lively skip in its step, featuring bags of juicy raspberry and cassis-laced fruit and a refreshing line, supported by ripe, plush tannins, finishing long and graceful.

About this wine
Two of the strongest wines ever made at Opus One, the 2007 has terrific black currant fruit, liquorice, incense, and subtle smoke, an opulent, even voluptuous mouthfeel, dazzling purity and texture, and a skyscraper-like mouthfeel. This is a sensational Opus One, with sweet tannin and impressive precision and depth.
