Parker about Opus One 2018

Very deep garnet-purple in color, the 2018 Opus One soars out of the glass with bright, bold boysenberries, warm cassis and ripe, juicy black plums notes, plus emerging nuances of lilacs, oolong tea, cinnamon stick, tilled soil and black truffles . Medium to full-bodied, the palate is packed with tightly wound layers of crunchy black fruits, supported by firm, grainy tannins and fantastic freshness, finishing with lifted fruitiness and on a lingering mineral note.

Produktbeschreibung

Opus One 2018


Opus One 2018 is a truly impressive red wine, brimming with refinement and elegance. It is crafted from a carefully selected blend of grape varieties, including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, and Malbec. This combination lends the wine impressive complexity and depth.

The Opus One 2018 presents itself in the glass in a deep, intense ruby ​​red, which reflects its concentration and power.

The wine's bouquet is complex and expressive. It unfolds a wealth of aromas dominated by ripe dark fruits such as black cherries, black currants, and blackberries. These fruity notes are accompanied by subtle spice nuances such as vanilla, cinnamon, and cloves, which lend the wine additional dimensional depth. Notes of tobacco, cedarwood, and a subtle mineral note round out the bouquet.

On the palate, the Opus One 2018 presents an impressive structure and perfect balance. The tannins are silky and well-integrated, giving the wine a smooth texture. The fruity aromas continue on the palate, supported by refreshing acidity. The wine displays remarkable complexity and depth, with a long and elegant finish.

The Opus One 2018 is a wine that is accessible even in its youth, but also has great potential for further development and aging. It pairs wonderfully with hearty dishes such as grilled steak, lamb chops, or braised game. It is also an excellent choice with mature hard cheeses.

With its exceptional quality, impressive structure and refined aromas, the Opus One 2018 is a wine for special occasions and a true highlight for wine lovers.
