Opus One 2016

Fantastic aromas that are complex and complete with blackcurrants, blueberries and herbs, such as basil and bay leaf. But always subtle. Full-bodied yet linear and very refined with a very persistent finish. It shows drive and brightness. So refined at the end. Needs at least three to five years to come together [and will cellar into the late 2040s, if not beyond]. Score – 99. (jamessuckling.com, Dec. 10, 2019)
