Sassicaia is the most famous Bordeaux blend in Italy and has spawned many imitations, whereby the blend is now firmly established in the New World and particularly in California and Australia. In St-Emilion and Pomerol, the blends are Merlot dominated as Cabernet Sauvignon can struggle to ripen there - when it is included, it adds structure and body to the wine. However 100% Cabernet Sauvignon wines can be slightly hollow-tasting in the middle palate and Merlot with its generous, fleshy fruit flavours acts as a perfect foil by filling in this cavity. In 2005 Constellation Brands purchased the Robert. About 30,000 cases are produced annually.

The winery owns vineyards in Oakville and grows Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. 2013 Opus One Napa Valley Bordeaux Blend SKU 1273199 100 points Decanter I love the 2012, but honestly the 2013 just has the edge, because it is just as concentrated and full of fruit but acidity and floral nuance balances out the richness. It is particularly suited to the dry, warm, free- draining, gravel-rich soils and is responsible for the redolent cassis characteristics as well as the depth of colour, tannic structure and pronounced acidity of Médoc wines. Trusted by millions to discover and buy the right wine every time. Terrific aromas of crushed black currants, blueberries and flowers with hints of sweet tobacco. Opus One has earned high praise over the years and is considered one of Napa Valley’s signature wines. In the Médoc and Graves the percentage of Cabernet Sauvignon in the blend can range from 95% ( Mouton-Rothschild) to as low as 40%. This is actually the archetypal Bordeaux blend, though in different proportions in the sub-regions and sometimes topped up with Cabernet Franc, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. Item Unit Price: 289.

Cabernet Sauvignon lends itself particularly well in blends with Merlot. Opus One 2013 is an extraordinary wine, and a true testament to both the terroir and winemaking in California.
