A wonderful soft delivery of blackberry and cherry. Tannins are still present, but background noise to the fruit that is pushing forward to say hello. Delicious. — 6 years ago

Comparing 2011 and 2015. Older is better. But both are terrific. The 2011 is deeper and darker, the 2015 fresh and fruit forward. Both have great finishes. — 7 years ago

Great paring with a Spanish themed meal that included tri-tip steak and a fried chick pea salad. Wine was delicious - bold fruit forward and a smooth finish - a fine example of a top tier WA wine. — 7 years ago

2011- gift from a friend. Excellent structure, tannins are very mellow but alcohol is still very hot. Fruit forward, possibly oxidized fruit (port-like fruit). — 11 years ago

Beautiful with an hour of breathing time. Concentrated berry fruit without being jammy. Pure. Fruit forward. Hot on the finish. Several blind tasters were leaning Grenache. — 7 years ago

Chewy and jammy with lush plum, cinnamon, spicebox, and white pepper flavors. A little more fruit forward than previous versions, and arguably a bit extracted. but still enjoyable, still reliable. Should always be on hand as it’s always a crowd pleaser. — 7 years ago

2013 - Luscious, fruit forward bouquet; great body; good legs, slightly tannic and medium finish; tasted one plus years ago and felt that time would help, which it did. — 8 years ago

Big forward, intense deep fruit, heavy body. Yet does not rely on body alone, develops on the palate. I would say it is still improving. Drank 2011 in July 2017. spectacular with the goat cheese and fig and thyme crackers as a wonderful appetizer course before even more impressive wines to come — 8 years ago

The 2013 Opus One is an absolute stunning release, and is certainly one of most impressive young wines I have ever tasted from this estate. This shows a darker, more forward profile from this warm vintage, and is clearly one to contemplate, as there are so many complexities and working parts to this compelling wine. This instantly impresses as it opens to intense aromatics of crème de cassis, black cherry, blackberry compote and black plum woven together with mocha, sandalwood. The mouthfeel is voluptuous and beautifully concenrated with deep and penetrating flavors of black cherry, créme de cassis, blackberry cobbler, anise, sage and anise, which all resonate beautifully across the palate. This is already extreamly appealing, but try to resist this hedonistic wine for at least another few years, as there is undoubtedly a long future ahead. Drink 2019-2035-99 — 7 years ago

New world goodness. Jammy. Bright red cherry with dry tannins and good structure. Well balanced fruit and acid. Young, bright, forward. Crowd pleaser for sure. — 9 years ago

Matt

9.0

Really nice and pleasant blend. Young and a bit cranky but rewarding with some air. Dark black fruits, fennel seed, turned wet earth, coffee, cedar, cocoa, tobacco, and dried flowers. Enjoyed the acid that balanced the forward but fine clay-like tannins. — 9 years ago

Strong consistent producer but you already knew that... Not a fruit forward style... More of an old world interpretation... — 10 years ago
