Experience the debut of Overture as a vintaged wine since the 2021 release.  Beginning in 1993 and following in the tradition of great Bordeaux estates, Opus One created a fine second wine called Overture. Every acre of the estate vineyard is meticulously farmed with the attention to detail and singular focus required to produce Opus One. This scrutiny carries through the blending process and certain lots will not be included in the final Opus One blend. Yet, when these lots are afforded additional time in barrel along with the added flexibility of blending across multiple vintages, the final wine achieves a remarkable elegance and complexity.  

Tasting Notes

The 2022 Overture offers a rich and expressive bouquet of dark fruit, such as blackberry, blueberry, and cherry. This is complemented by notes of chocolate, espresso, cedar, vanilla, and hints of floral aromas like rose petals and violets.
