2017 Opus One
Description
Composed of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Petit Verdot, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Merlot and 2% Malbec, Opus One's 2015 Proprietary Red Wine is truly an iron fist in a velvet glove, delivering a powerhouse of flavors and structure with a seductively plush texture. It opens with a deep garnet-purple color and wonderfully spicy notes of cinnamon stick, cloves and fenugreek with a core of cherry preserves, redcurrant jelly, blackberry pie and warm plums plus hints of camphor, lavender and cigar box. Full-bodied, rich and bold in the mouth, it fills the palate with exotic spice-laced black and red fruits, framed by firm, beautifully ripe, grainy tannins and great freshness, finishing with epic persistence.

Tasting note
2017年的作品一號展現了豐富的黑果、玫瑰莖和土壤的和諧香氣平衡。果汁般的入口提供了圓潤、絲滑的口感，恰到好處的酸度與絲滑的質地相輔相成。這款誘人的葡萄酒展現了黑醋栗、黑櫻桃和一絲可可粉的風味。細緻的豐滿單寧演變成長久、柔順的餘韻。這是一款極具陳年潛力的葡萄酒，無論現在品嚐還是在未來的許多年裡，都將帶來愉悅的體驗。
The 2017 Opus One is a harmonious blend of rich dark fruit, stems of roses, and earthy forest floor. The juicy entry offers a round, silky mouthfeel with just enough acidity to complement the satin texture. This seductive wine shows flavors of black cassis, black cherry and a hint of cocoa powder. The fine-grained, plush tannins evolve into a long, supple finish. A supremely age-worthy wine, it will delight now and for many years to come.
