Opolo’s 2014 Rhapsody Reserve Red Blend is comprised of 66% Cabernet Sauvignon, 20% Merlot, and 14% Malbec, sourced from Opolo’s finest estate vineyards in Paso Robles on California’s Central Coast. This Bordeaux-style blend is beautifully balanced, full-bodied and decadently rich, showing off the exceptional and expressive fruit that flourishes in Opolo’s estate vineyards. On the nose, intense and lively aromas of blackberry, plum, mocha, tobacco, red cherry, and Chinese five spice are in perfect harmony, while the fruit-forward palate offers flavors of candied cherries and ginger spice with chalky, well-integrated tannins. This wine is delicious now, but will continue to evolve with proper cellaring.
