Opus One Napa Valley Red Wine 2021

The Opus One Napa Valley Red Wine 2021 is an extraordinary expression of Napa Valley's renowned terroir, crafted in one of the vineyard's driest years on record. Despite these challenging conditions, the vineyard team adapted with precision, ensuring the vines thrived. Lower-than-average rainfall led to early cultivation and smaller yields, but the grapes harvested between August and September delivered exceptional concentration and depth of flavor, showcasing the resilience and skill of the Opus One team.

On the nose, the 2021 vintage opens with an alluring bouquet of dark fruits—crushed cassis, blackberry, and black cherry—beautifully accented by hints of violet, vanilla, and baking spices. On the palate, it is bright and fresh, with these fruit notes deepened by a creamy, plush mid-palate texture, thanks to its fine-grained tannins. Complex layers of black tea, licorice, and dark chocolate add intrigue and lead to a lingering, luxurious finish.

This wine is a perfect choice for immediate enjoyment but also holds great potential for aging, rewarding those who cellar it for future indulgence.
