The 2019 Opus One is a prestigious wine, renowned for its elegance and complexity. Here are some typical tasting notes for this vintage:
Colour: Deep and dark, with ruby tones.
Aromas: Intense notes of black fruits such as blackberry and plum, accompanied by hints of dark chocolate, tobacco and sweet spices. There are also hints of flowers and herbs that add depth.
Palate: In the mouth, the wine has a powerful structure and excellent balance. Ripe fruit, coffee, vanilla and well-integrated tannins give the wine a smooth and silky texture.
Finish: Long and persistent with an aftertaste that reflects the fruity and spicy notes.
This wine is ideal for ageing and we recommend decanting before serving to allow it to open and develop in the glass. Perfect with red meats, game and cured cheeses.
