A modern classic from Napa Valley's original Franco-American joint venture, the 2016 Opus One is a seamless blend of power, polish, and pedigree. Crafted by Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi's legendary estate, this vintage stands among the finest of the decade-graced with structure, precision, and unmistakable elegance.
The 2016 growing season delivered near-ideal conditions, and the result is a wine of remarkable depth: layered aromas of cassis, black plum, graphite, violets, and fine cedar rise from the glass. The palate is equally composed, with satin tannins, vibrant acidity, and a long, harmonious finish. Composed primarily of Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot, Petit Verdot, Cabernet Franc, and Malbec rounding out the blend, this wine reflects both its Napa terroir and Bordeaux heritage.
Drinking beautifully now but built for decades of cellaring, this is a flagship bottling from one of the world's most prestigious estates.
