Vedi gli altri i vini Opus One di Opus One. Opus One è uno dei vini più pregiati al mondo. I would like to say the same about persons but I have my doubts. Opus One Napa Valley 2015 è in vendita con un prezzo minimo di 580, il prezzo più alto è di 900, il prezzo medio di Opus One 2015 di Opus One è di 682. There is nothing to replace what age can do for a wine. All the parts are there and there is no discord among them but the whole doesn’t sing until show time. It reminded me of a band in their final rehearsal before a big show. I wouldn’t hold the Overture more than 6-8 years, but it still needs a few years to develop. I doubt that the Overture will age like Opus One’s flagship. It was beautifully preserved, still opulent, fresh and vibrant, among the best Napa wines I’ve tasted and a legitimate rival of Bordeaux Premier Crus. I recently tasted the flagship Opus One from 1993.

Overture is a blend of all the Bordeaux varietals, apparently including some juice held back from earlier vintages-hence the lack of a vintage designation on the label. The alcohol is nicely done never a distraction. They don’t grip but do propel a very long powerful finish. On the plus side of medium body, rich and round yet lithe and lively in the mouth with plenty of acidity, it will not achieve the characteristic velvet texture until the oak and acid become more integrated. There is excellent depth and clarity but it is not as complex as I had expected for a wine at this price.ĭeeply concentrated dark fruit gives way to an intense mid-palate that shows licorice but tastes excessively woody. With aeration some loamy earth appears decanting is recommended. The nose shows sweet vanilla, black cherry and cassis wrapped around a core of tobacco.

But most quality red wines-especially Bordeaux varietals-will benefit from some aging to get all the components to come together. With its soft tannins, Opus One’s “second wine” is approachable now and was clearly made to be consumed young. Alas, none of them are true of persons, only of wine.

Our literature is full of epigrams about the virtues of age-“The best is yet to be”, “Old age hath yet his honor and his toil”, “With age comes wisdom”.
