Fine & Rare Tuesday:
OPUS ONE
Available now in impressive, age-worthy & ultra-rare 1.5 & 3 liter bottles!
Upon its first release in 1981 Opus One instantly became California's premier ultra-premium wine. Destined for greatness since its inception, Opus One began as a collaboration between two legends of the wine world: California's Robert Mondavi and Bordeaux's Baron Philippe de Rothschild. Vintage after Vintage Opus One has delivered on the promise of crafting a Napa red to stand with the greatest wines ever produced and to evolve gracefully in the cellar for decades.
Available now: Rare, large-format 1.5 and 3 liter bottles of Opus One from multiple vintages. Opus One is one of
the most collectible Napa wines and there is no better way to age, present and enjoy it than with these limited large bottlings!
Wines may not be in stock at all three locations so please place orders through our website before making a trip to one of our stores.
2006 Opus One
93+ Points Wine Advocate
"The 2006 comes across as a bigger, more structured wine than the 2007. The tannins are bolder, more dramatic, and more present. The wine displays impressive depth, not the velvety elegance of the 2007, but is a more muscular wine that begs for 2-3 years of cellaring and should drink well for 20-25 years."
1.5 Liter '06: $649.99, 2 bottles available
2009 Opus One
"The 2009 Opus One is impeccable. It brings together the silkiness of the 2007 with the power and darkness of the 2008, a combination that is hugely appealing, to say the least. With a little air, the 2009 can be enjoyed young, but it is best cellared for at least a few years, which will allow some of the baby fat to drop off."
1.5 Liter '09: $749.99, 2 bottles available
3 Liter '09: $1,449.98, 1 bottle available
2010 Opus One
96 Points Wine Advocate
"A glorious perfume of sweet charcoal, truffle, black currants and spice box soars from the glass of the saturated purple-colored 2010 Opus One. The gorgeous aromatics are followed by a beautifully knit, full-bodied red blend displaying lots of spicy black currant fruit, medium to full body, velvety tannins, and not a hard edge to be found. The texture, length and richness are all impressive."
1.5 Liter '10: $746.99, 3 bottles available
3 Liter '10: $1,679.99, 1 bottle available

96 Points Wine Advocate
"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."
