A remarkable wine for the year the 2017 Opus One is a dense full-throttle beauty. Plush fruit and soft silky contours give the 2017 its racy personality. Exotic beautifully perfumed and impeccable in its balance Opus One is one of the most complete wines of the vintage. In 2017 Opus One has a distinctly red-toned fruit profile that distinguishes it from the surrounding vintages.

Wine Advocate: 95 Points
Opus One had picked 91% of their fruit before the fires started in 2017 and only two lots were eliminated from consideration. The 2017 Opus One bottled in July 2019 is a blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon 8.5% Petit Verdot 5% Cabernet Franc 4.5% Merlot and 1% Malbec. Medium to deep garnet-purple colored it slowly grows on the nose revealing compelling notes of baked black cherries mulberries black raspberries warm cassis and blackberry pie with nuances of spice cake yeast extract tapenade licorice and dusty soil with a waft of wild sage. Medium-bodied the palate has a lively skip in its step featuring bags of juicy raspberry and cassis-laced fruit and a refreshing line supported by ripe plush tannins finishing long and graceful.
