Opus One is a joint venture between the late Napa Valley vintner Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Château Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux. From the onset, Opus One was conceived as a Bordeaux-style blend based on premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, thereby merging French and American winemaking styles into a singular opus. After its debut in 1979, Opus One Napa Valley quickly rose to cult status, and to this day it remains one of the most sought-after wines produced in the United States.

"The iconic 2012 Proprietary Red Opus One is a blend of 79% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Cabernet Franc, 6% Petit Verdot, 6% Merlot, and 2% Malbec aged 18 months in French oak. A classy, complex, suave, and savory 2012 Opus One, with notes of toasty oak and crème de cassis. This Pauillac lookalike, made by the staff at Mouton Rothschild, is a beauty. They have continued to strengthen the quality of wine and seem to have produced a brilliant, world-class wine. I imagine the 2013 may even eclipse this, but this 2012 is one of their great ones, with a seamless integration of acidity, tannin, alcohol, and wood all present in this beautiful, full-bodied wine that should drink well for 25-30 years.

With a custom-designed label or engraving, the Opus One Cabernet Sauvignon Blend makes a memorable gift for wine lovers.
