Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

I'd get to drinking your 97's now. Good...great actually but beginning to lose a lot. Cork was quite soft on mine. Flavor...like California...but smoother ;-) — 10 years ago

I had just bailed on a bottle of overripe Napa Cabernet Sauvignon moments before pulling the cork on this little gem. Balanced, complex, and respectful of the quality mountain fruit that makes this wine so delicious. Terrific next to grilled meat. — 12 years ago

Château Montrose

Saint-Estèphe Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1989

We went 2/2 tonight. This bottle was a testament to perfect storage. Cork was perfect, and the wine was dark ruby with ever so slight bricking at the rim. Awesome. More approachable than the 90 and makes you wanna curl up with it for a long time. Better than the bottle I had at the Montrose vertical a month ago. Blind I would guess 10 yrs newer. For this price point and quality it's a must add. Edged out the Margaux. — 10 years ago

Thanks. I got my hands on a couple of 66s the other day with levels around the top half of the embossed brand. Don't have much experience with ullage in this bottle shape so that's reassuring to hear!
