Opus One
Opus One was founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild legendary proprietor of Château Mouton Rothschild and renowned Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi. By combining the great winemaking traditions and innovations of both families the founders’ singular goal was to create an exceptional wine in the heart of Napa Valley. Opus One like any great work arose out of passion. Dedicated to uncompromised quality Opus One’s sole purpose is to express this vision and passionate spirit for generations to come.
Description
"Blended of 82% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 4% Merlot, 4% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec and displaying a medium to deep garnet-purple color, the Opus One 2015 Proprietary Red Wine is a sexy, beautiful spice-bomb, with tons of cinnamon stick, cloves, fenugreek and pepper notes springing forth over a core of mulberries, plum preserves, blackberry pie and fragrant earth plus a waft of lavender. The palate is big, voluptuous and totally decadent, with velvety tannins and just enough freshness framing the rich, spicy black fruits, finishing with a lovely perfumed lift." Robert Parker
Food Pairing
Horseradish and pepper crusted tenderloin with port reduction. Braised shortribs.
