The 2018 Opus One OWC6 (6 × 0.75L) ranks among California’s absolute best. Opus One is the result of the legendary collaboration between Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi and combines the elegance of Bordeaux with the power of Napa Valley. The original wooden case containing six bottles enhances its authenticity and collectible value.
The 2018 vintage is considered one of the most well-rounded recent vintages. Thanks to a long and consistent growing season, the grapes developed exceptional aromatic intensity, perfectly ripe tannins, and impressive freshness. The wine possesses tremendous depth and will continue to evolve for decades to come.
The wine opens with aromas of cassis, black cherries, blueberries, violets, graphite, cedar, dark chocolate, espresso, and subtle spices. On the palate, it is powerful yet refined, with velvety-smooth tannins, lively freshness, and an exceptionally long, mineral finish.
Serve at 16–18°C and decant the wine about two hours in advance. Delicious with grilled beef, lamb, game, veal, truffle dishes, and aged hard cheeses.
Opus One was founded in 1979 as a unique collaboration between Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi. The estate produces only one Grand Vin per vintage and is regarded worldwide as the quintessential icon of Napa Valley. Thanks to its uncompromising focus on quality, Opus One ranks among the very best in the international wine world.
