Description from the seller

Critic Scores – Opus One 1996
98 points – Robert Parker (The Wine Advocate)
97 points – Wine Spectator
One of the highest-rated Opus One vintages ever released, widely regarded as a benchmark for long-lived Napa Valley wines and a blue-chip collectible.


An iconic and highly sought-after vintage of Opus One, one of Napa Valley’s most prestigious wines. The 1996 vintage is considered a classic, built for long aging, with remarkable structure, balance, and elegance.
The bouquet offers layered aromas of blackcurrant, plum, graphite, cedar, tobacco, and subtle spice. On the palate, it is powerful yet refined, with silky tannins, excellent concentration, and a long, persistent finish. Now fully mature, yet still vibrant, showing the true character of a great aged Napa Cabernet-based blend.
A benchmark California wine, perfect for collectors or for a memorable high-end tasting experience. Rare to find in this condition and vintage.
