A blend of Cabernet Sauvignon 84%, Petit Verdot 6%, Merlot 5%, Cabernet Franc 4%, and Malbec 1%, matured in new French oak for 17 months, the Opus One 2018 offers profuse aromas of blackberry, cassis and black cherry. Harvest began on September 19th with a steady pace that continued until the last fruit arrived on October 25th. While the season got off to a later start, veraison occurred only seven days later than the average which gave the fruit the necessary time to ripen perfectly. Flawless conditions ensued during flowering and fruit set which led to higher-than-average yields. The beginning of the year was notably dry however, well-timed rainfall just before bud-break provided the necessary water for canopy development. Dedicated to uncompromising quality, Opus One’s sole purpose is to express this vision and passionate spirit for generations to come. The vineyards enjoyed idyllic growing conditions with consistent weather and milder temperatures in 2018. Opus One, like any great work, arose out of passion. 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 was founded by Baron Philippe de Rothschild, legendary proprietor of Château Mouton Rothschild, and renowned Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi.
