Opus One Napa Red 2019

They met while on holiday on the Big Island of Hawaii, at the Mauna Kea Beach Hotel. One is the owner of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux. The other is one of Napa Valley’s most renowned winemakers. But they have one thing in common: they are both masters of Cabernet Sauvignon.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. Together, our founders set out to create a single wine dedicated to the pursuit of uncompromising quality. This singular mission shapes every vintage, today and for generations to come.The Opus One 2019 has intense aromas of black plum, blueberry, black currant, and dried rose petals, accentuated by mineral undertones. The creamy, satiny texture is framed by fine-grained tannins. The freshness and soft glow of acidity create a subtle tension with dark fruit flavors, savory herbs, espresso, and cocoa. A delicate dark chocolate bitterness lingers on the finish.
