The evolution of Opus continues here, with a more modern structure and feel, and the whole thing begs to be savoured slowly, enjoying the juicy blackberry and red cherry fruits, finely-boned tannins, and the multiple strands of flavour, from earthy tobacco, campfire, slate and soot to fresher orange peel and lemongrass. A cool growing season overall, this has less intensity overall than the bigger vintages but is full of charm. 28 days skin contact, winemakers Patrick Léon and Tim Mondavi.
