The 2005 Opus One brings plenty of sweet dark currant and cassis backed by pretty fresh floral, mineral, loam and tar. Dense and concentrated with a velvety, yet firm structure and a long juicy finish. The blend is composed of Cabernet Sauvignon 88%, Merlot 5%, Petit Verdot 3%, Cabernet Franc 3% and 1%.
