Robert Parker: The iconic 2012 Proprietary Red Opus One is a blendof 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, 6%Merlot and 2% Malbec aged 18 months in French oak. A classy,complex, suave and savory 2012 Opus One, with notes of toasty oakand creme de cassis. This Pauillac lookalike, made by the staff atMouton Rothschild, is a beauty. They have continued to strengthenthe quality of wine and seem to have produced a brilliant,world-class wine. I imagine the 2013 may even eclipse this, butthis 2012 is one of their great ones, with a seamless integrationof acidity, tannin, alcohol and wood all present in this beautiful,full-bodied wine that should drink well for 25-30 years.
