Scores
"Offers the vintages up-front profile, but with lighter body and more freshness, rather than a gush of fruit and sheer overtness, as the red currant, damson plum and cherry coulis notes show subtle red licorice, rose petal and savory streaks. This has genuine length too, with a touch of iron minerality. A little subdued overall, but a strong effort for the vintage. Cabernet Sauvignon, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Malbec. -- Non-blind Opus One vertical (July 2025). Best from 2026 through 2036." 92 Points, Wine Spectator

 

Producer Notes:
"Opus One 2022 exudes charm and sophistication from the glass. Primary aromas of blueberry, cassis, and dried rose petals with underlying notes of olive, cigar box, and graphite create a rich and inviting bouquet. On the palate, bright red-fruit flavors, cocoa, and fresh orange peel waltz together into a harmonious and balanced profile. Long and elegant, the finish delivers touches of wet stone, vanilla, and a hint of coffee. Fine-grained tannins and juicy ripeness signal the promise of a long future in the cellar."
