Parker about Opus One 2017

Opus One had picked 91% of their fruit before the fires started in 2017, and only two lots were eliminated from consideration. The 2017 Opus One, bottled in July 2019, is a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8.5% Petit Verdot, 5% Cabernet Franc, 4.5% Merlot and 1% Malbec. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, 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, licorice and dusty soil with a waft of wild say. 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.

Produktbeschreibung

Opus One 2017


Opus One 2017 is a premium red wine produced in a collaboration between California winery Robert Mondavi and the renowned Château Mouton Rothschild of Bordeaux, France. This vintage is considered outstanding and is one of the most sought-after wines in the Opus One range.

The 2017 Opus One is a blend of various grape varieties, with Cabernet Sauvignon as the main component. Other grapes such as Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec complement the blend to create a complex and expressive flavor palette.

On the nose, the Opus One 2017 presents intense aromas of dark berry fruits such as blackcurrants and cassis, accompanied by notes of cherries and plums. Subtle nuances of spices, cedarwood, tobacco, and dark chocolate add depth and complexity to the wine. The aromas are finely balanced and offer remarkable harmony.

On the palate, the Opus One 2017 impresses with its structure and richness. It is powerful yet elegant, with silky tannins that give the wine a smooth texture. The fruity aromas continue, accompanied by notes of spice, espresso, and a hint of vanilla. The wine displays exceptional balance and a remarkable length on the finish.

Opus One wines are characterized by their precision, refinement, and elegance, and the 2017 Opus One is no exception. This vintage has excellent aging potential and will continue to gain complexity and depth over time.

The Opus One 2017 is a wine for special occasions and is an excellent accompaniment to fine food. Its exceptional quality and distinguished reputation make it a sought-after wine for collectors and connoisseurs of premium wines.
