1995 Opus One, Napa Valley, Bottle (750ml)
Product Description
"Freshly cut flowers, raspberries, anise and savory herbs jump from the glass in the 1995 Opus One. A beautifully bright, focused wine, the 1995 stands out for its high-toned aromatics and fabulous balance. All the elements are in the right place. This is a distinctly pretty, feminine Opus One that is all about grace. An attractive aromatic lift rounds things out nicely. Stylistically, the 1995 belongs to the wines of similarly high rainfall vintages such as 1986 and 2011. The 1995 is 86% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot and 2% Malbec."

"The 1995 Opus One is medium to deep garnet-brick in color. It is quite delicate and shy on the nose, revealing subtle notes of stewed strawberries, cranberry sauce, and rosebud tea opening out to hints of Chinese five spice and dusty soil with a touch of tobacco leaf. The medium-bodied palate is elegant and beautifully poised, with lightly chewy tannins and just enough freshness, finishing with a perfumed lift." LPB 93 Pts for TWI Published: Jun 12, 2024
