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
Overture is a timeless reflection of our Opus One estate vineyards. This remarkable terroir expresses itself in the complex aromas, flavors and especially, textures of Overture. The classic blackberry and cassis character of Cabernet Sauvignon melds seamlessly with the black cherry, red currant and violet from the Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Malbec. The blending of wine-lots across vintages and extended barrel aging gives Overture a supple structure and silky texture.
Food Pairing
