I like the intensity of the 2018s-2019 is a bit above it. 2018 is elegant, and that’s not an excuse for being lighter. Comparing the 2018 vintage with 2019, winemaker Michael Silacci commented, “There’s a little more richness to 2019. Medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a lively backbone and tightly wound black and red berry layers, it finishes with a compelling herbal lift.ĭuring my recent visit to Opus One, I tasted five vintages of the “grand vin,” including a barrel sample of the 2019, which will be published separately in a dedicated report.
Deep garnet colored, the 2014 Opus One opens with youthful notes of warm blackberries, chocolate-covered cherries, redcurrant jelly and blackcurrant pastilles with hints of bay leaves, tobacco leaf and underbrush. Opus One 2014 THE WINE TASTING NOTES Colour: Inky purple colour Ending: Medium, extensive and pure Flavours: Dark fruit flavors emerge with hints of baking.
