It grows on four unique vineyard plots: the Ballestra and River Parcels, which flank the winery, as well as To Kalon North and South, located across Highway 29. Last summer’s visit with winemaker Michael Silacci was an indispensable glimpse into the process by which Opus One becomes one of the great wines of the world. Antonio Galloni was effusive about this wine, calling it a “dense, full-throttle beauty” that’s “exotic, beautifully perfumed and impeccable in its balance.” He summed it up as “one of the most complete wines of the vintage.” The plush mouthfeel shows supple, tightly woven tannins laced with ripe black cherry and blueberry flavors, and harmonious notes of fresh herbs, black olive, cocoa powder, and toast singing in the background, building to a crescendo on the long finish.
