Robert Parker Wine Advocate:

Deep garnet colored, the 2014 Opus One opens with youthful notes of warm blackberries, chocolate-covered cherries, redcurrant jelly and blackcurrant pastilles with hints of bay leaves, tobacco leaf and underbrush. Medium to full-bodied, firm and grainy with a lively backbone and tightly wound black and red berry layers, it finishes with a compelling herbal lift. Drink Date 2021-2047. Rating 96/100. -Lisa Perrotti-Brown-

Vinous:

The 2014 Opus One is not as showy or obvious as some of the other surrounding vintages, but it will have its day. Stylistically, the 2014 is bright and also a touch linear, with a construction built more on focus rather than opulence. Readers should plan on giving the 2014 another few years in bottle at a minimum. The mid-weight style is a bit Old World-leaning in this striking, super-classic Opus One. Drink Date 2022-2039. Rating 96/100. -Antonio Galloni-

Adrian van Velsen - vvWine.ch:

(Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Merlot, Malbec): Dichtes Rubin, jugendlicher Glanz. Tiefe, ausserordentlich komplexe Nase, ein feiner Duft, ätherische Noten, dunkle Kirschen, Johannisbeere, Kräuter, ein Hauch Minze, blonder Tabak was für ein Nasenbild. Der Gaumen ist konzentriert, ein Mund voll Wein, ausgesprochen dicht, dabei aber nicht plump und schwerfällig sondern mit einer gewissen Eleganz, hoher Gerbstoffgehalt, die Tannine sind von höchster Güte, die Säure stimmt, der Wein zeigt eine grosse Komplexität und zieht sich im Abgang enorm in die Länge, endet würzig und auf eine reife, schwarze Johannisbeerfrucht. Ein grosser Wein, unbedingt noch reifen lassen. 2024-2040+. Bewertung 95+/100. -Adrian van Velsen – vvWine.ch -

Jancis Robinson:

80% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Petit Verdot, 6% Cabernet Franc, 5% Merlot, 2% Malbec. Aged for 18 months in new French barriques. Savoury nose. Very lifted and almost leafy – very far from a fruit bomb. Very much a food wine. Very, very different from wine bar syrup. Not obviously high alcohol. After pretty ripe cassis some black olive flavours dominate. Rather bordeaux-like build but with a richer finish than a bordeaux would have. Obviously there's a fair amount of tannin here but it's well handled and dominated by the fruit. Good peacock's tail finish. I could imagine some Americans asking 'where's the beef (stew)?' but this should definitely appeal to (well heeled) Europeans. Drink Date 2017-2033. Rating 17+/20. -Jancis Robinson-

James Suckling.com:

Mesmerizing aromas of flowers, bark, currants and blackberries. So perfumed. You just want to smell it. Exquisite tension and finesse with an almost Burgundian texture, yet it’s Napa in its soul with ripe fruit, stones, spices and Chinese tea leaf flavors. Savory and delicious. Drinkable but better in 2020. Available on October 2017. Rating 97/100. -JamesSuckling.com-

falstaff.com:

Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reﬂexe, zarte Randaufhellung. Lakritze und Cassis, wirkt etwas verhalten, etwas Kardamom und Edelholzwürze, frische Orangenzesten, braucht einiges an Luft. Komplex, sehr elegant, engmaschig, extraktsüße Textur, feiner Säurebogen, schokoladiger Nachhall, stoffig und anhaltend, schwarze Kirschen im Nachhall, lange und sehr vielversprechend. Bewertung 96/100. -falstaff.com, Peter Moser-
