Opus One 2009

Opus One 2009

Vintage:

2009

Ratings:

93 points by International Wine Cellar

Acclaim:

Full medium ruby. Wild, flamboyantly expressive aromas of black raspberry, crystallized blackberry, smoke, leather, licorice, bitter chocolate and cedar, lifted by violet and spices. Smooth, mouthfilling and decidedly dry, with a lightly dusty character to its flavors of dark fruits, minerals and game. The broad, very long finish features building tannins. Quite different in style from the higher-pitched 2008, which was tighter and more floral at the same stage of its evolution.

Tasting Notes:

Aromas of black olive and minerals underlie more traditional notes of dark chocolate, cola and espresso. Showing flavors of ripe blueberry, cassis and licorice, this age-worthy wine simultaneously offers a smooth finish and a slight grip of tannin at the close.

Blend:

81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, 3% Merlot, 1% Malbec

Cellaring:

Best from 2014 through 2025.

Penfolds Grange 2005

Vintage:

2005

Ratings:

97 points by Wine Advocate

Acclaim:

An Australian icon for over five decades, Grange is considered one of the world's finest wines, with each vintage eagerly awaited by collectors worldwide. It is a wine of extraordinary dimension and power, and is considered to be one of the great wine experiences.

Tasting Notes:

The 2005 vintage has been acclaimed as a classic Grange that will ultimately be seen as one of the great vintages. A glass-coating opaque purple color, it displays a superb nose of wood smoke, Asian spices, incense, blueberry, and blackberry liqueur. Medium to full-bodied, satin textured, with deeply layered, succulent blackberry, plum, and chocolate flavors, it is at once intense, powerful, composed, polished, and very long.

Blend:

96% Shiraz and 4% Cabernet Sauvignon

Cellaring:

Best from 2013 through 2025.
