Tasted from barrel, the 2022 Opus One is quite flamboyant in its aromatics, flavors and textures. Dense, plush and creamy, with no hard edges, the 2022 possesses compelling balance and plenty of allure at this early stage. Harvest started on August 24, the earliest ever. Winemaker Michael Silacci and his team chose to irrigate just before the massive Labor Day heat spike, an unusual decision here.
