OVERTURE (2018/2019) by OPUS ONE presents a deep crimson hue with perfumed aromas of ruby fruits. Profiles of ripe cherry and red currant are accompanied by nuances of cocoa, cedar and vanilla. Aging in barrels ensures a velvety texture with supple tannins and balanced mouthfeel.
Winemaker's notes
"Gorgeous plum colour, sumptuous and ready to dive into. The aromatics are deliciously open, with crunchy raspberry and blueberry fruits, balanced and well put together. Feels cohesive, juicy, with plenty of 2019 character (although this is multi vintage, with exact percentages not stated), with nuanced fresh mint leaf and crayon. High Cabernet Sauvignon in this blend, 60% new oak, 40% one year oak, bottled August 2021."
