SKU 862112 Type Red Wine Country United States Region California Subregion Napa Valley Grape Bordeaux Red Blend Producer Opus One Winery Vintage 2018. This Napa Valley wine is also one of the top exported wines from the region. Many Americans enjoy the award-winning Opus One wine, which is made from a high-quality, award-winning blend. Without a doubt, one of those wines to try once in your life. Opus One: A High Quality, Award-winning Wine. A Napa Valley that's a Bordeaux at heart, or else a Bordeaux with its roots in the Napa Valley, whichever you prefer.Īlthough Opus One has always been considered as one of California's greatest wines, since Philippe Dhalluin has taken charge of technical direction for the whole group of wineries owned by the Rothschild family (Château Mouton Rothschild, Château Clerc Milon and Château d'Armailhac in Pauillac, Almaviva in Chile, Domaine de Baron'arques in Limoux and the Opus One itself in Napa Valley), this extraordinary New World Cabernet has acquired a special finesse of its own, thanks to absolute precision in grape selection, parcel-based micro vinifications, and the usage of barrels with a much lighter toasting than was utilised years ago. Opus One is the realized dream of two men: Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux and Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi.
It's Bordeaux in style, elegant and refined. The 2016 Opus One is 77 Cabernet Sauvignon, 8 Petit Verdot, 8 Merlot, 5 Cabernet Franc and 2 Malbec. It goes much further in its typically Bordeaux blend (the melange features Cabernet Sauvignon primarily, with small percentages of Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec).
Opus One is an opulent and mature wine, with an indisputable French touch and very highly esteemed. Opus One is a partnership founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Pauillac, France, and renowned Napa Valley vintner, Robert Mondavi. Opus One is the Napa Valley's most emblematic wine, created in 1979 by two of the wine world's greatest names: Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild, although it was his daughter, Baroness Philippine de Rothschild, also now sadly deceased, who really initiated the project after her father's death.
