2021 Opus One, Mondavi/Rothschild, Napa Valley

2021 Opus One, Mondavi/Rothschild, Napa Valley

The 2021 vintage of Opus is a paean to Cabernet, comprising an unusually high 93% of the blend this year. The aromatics are like fireworks of star anise, cinnamon, cardamon, and dark chocolate. On the palate, the Cabernet fruit shines through with notes of black cherry, plum and ripe blackcurrant pastille fruit. The 2021 opens with some flamboyance and confidence but tightens up on the palate, suggesting real density and longevity. The tannins are supple and very fine-grained with a lift of pomegranate and violets on the finish.
