A powerful yet refined expression of Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, it combines ripe fruit, polished structure and remarkable depth with the elegance associated with the Opus One style.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDeep ruby in colour with a youthful purple hue, the 2021 vintage opens with layered aromas of blackcurrant, blackberry, plum and dark cherry, complemented by violet, graphite, cedar and subtle hints of cocoa and baking spice. On the palate, it is concentrated and beautifully structured, with rich dark fruit, finely grained tannins and vibrant acidity. Notes of cassis, black cherry, dark chocolate and minerals lead to a long, persistent finish with savoury oak nuances. This is a serious, cellar-worthy vintage that should develop gracefully for 15–25 years or more under proper storage.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine is sourced from Opus One’s estate vineyards in Napa Valley, where warm, sunny days encourage full ripeness while cooler nights help preserve freshness and aromatic precision. The 2021 blend is led by Cabernet Sauvignon, supported by Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. Grapes are harvested by hand, carefully sorted and vinified parcel by parcel before the selected lots are blended and matured in French oak, allowing the fruit, tannins and oak to integrate into a harmonious whole.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFood \u0026amp; Serving\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eServe at approximately 16–18°C. Decant for two to three hours before serving, particularly while the wine is young, to reveal its aromatic complexity and soften its tannins. Its depth and structure make it an excellent partner for prime rib, roast lamb, beef tenderloin, venison and richly flavoured mushroom dishes. It can also be enjoyed with mature hard cheeses such as aged Gouda or Comté.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProducer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOpus One was founded in 1978 by Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Château Mouton Rothschild, bringing together the winemaking traditions of Napa Valley and Bordeaux.
