Since no vintage, this wine could become old sitting on shelf. Fine tannins, lingering ending with earthy mineral. On the palate cherry and blackberry, with earthy tones, Bordeaux like, adding notes of cacao and vanilla oak. A multi-vintage blend, about 70% Cabernet Sauvignon. When these wine lots are afforded additional time in barrel, in combination with the added flexibility of blending across multiple vintages, the final wine achieves a remarkable elegance and complexity that represents a superb expression of our estate. Nevertheless, in any given year, not all of the parcels from our estate are selected for the final blend of Opus One. Every acre of our estate vineyard is farmed with the attention to detail and singular focus required to produce Opus One. Since 1993, Overture has been crafted as a part of our relentless pursuit of quality for Opus One. In keeping with the tradition of many great Bordeaux estates, Opus One produces a fine second wine called Overture. As a fine wine, Overture will develop beautifully over time.
