Opus One Overture Napa Valley 2022

Opus One Overture Napa Valley 2022 is a sophisticated Bordeaux-style blend primarily composed of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, complemented by Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, and Petit Verdot. This vintage marks a significant shift for the label as one of its early single-vintage releases, moving away from its traditional multi-vintage format while maintaining the estate's signature elegance and precision. The wine captivates with a complex aromatic tapestry of bright cherry, fresh forest berries, and cut rose stems, interwoven with delicate notes of violet, toasted almond, and anise. On the palate, it delivers a vibrant expression of blackberry and blueberry supported by a lively acidity and supple, fine-grained tannins. Aged for 18 months in new French oak, this red wine offers a long, rounded finish with hints of mocha and black tea, making it approachable in its youth while possessing the structure to age gracefully for over a decade.
