Tasting
Nose: The 2011 Opus One expresses fresh aromas of red fruit, Provençal herbs, bay leaf and blackcurrant, giving way to more subtle notes of black tea and white pepper.
Palate: The wine's round tannins and creamy texture envelop the familiar aromas of fresh cherry, cranberry and boysenberry with a touch of dark chocolate. This refined wine for laying down offers a silky finish with a slight tannic persistence.
Contains sulfites
