Opus One Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1987

$395

Extra facets and dimensions abound in this deeplycomplex and flavorful wine. Impressive for itsfocus and finesse, though there's an underlyingfirmness and authority in the core of chewycurrant, herb and anise flavors. Delicious... Wine Spectator

Imperial of 1987 - one of the best of this vintage I have ever had. Enjoyed tasting in London at 67 Pall Mall. Thanks Ronan!

Deep red with slight brick edging; nose of ripe black cherry, cedar and herbs; soft and luscious cassis and sweet oak on palate with a lingering finish of mushroom with a hint of sweet tobacco. Perfectly integrated and just past its peak from a 25 year sleep in my cellar.
