Opus One "Overture" Napa Valley Bordeaux Blend (2020 Release)

Review Date: 08/2020

2014, 2015 and 2016 blend of fruit rejected for Opus One in the spring blending session. Fruit from their four vineyards. QR code on the back label gives more information. Bottled 14 August 2018. Quantity 10–15% of the volume of Opus One. Deep crimson. Very pale narrow rim. Sweet, almost dark-chocolate nose. Not quite fresh enough for many a European palate, I would have thought, but certainly well made and certainly an opulent expression of Napa Cab. Little top note of balsam adds interest. A smoothness of texture and a skein of light minerality. Respectably long and ready to drink. Hardly any tannin in evidence. (JR)

Notes

Overture has been the second wine of Opus since 1993, following in the tradition of the great Bordeaux estates. Made exactly like Opus One and sourced from the same estate vineyards, the Overture is a classic Bordeaux blend, with Cabernet Sauvignon making up around 70%.
