September Releases kicks off with Californian royalty Opus One - one of the true First Growths of Napa, earning a distinction as a Napa wine with a Bordeaux soul.

Also released: Overture 2022, the second wine of Opus One, meticulously crafted with the same know-how as the Grand Vin, using organically grown fruit from estate vineyards.

2022 Opus One, Mondavi/Rothschild, Napa Valley Dry | Red | Still | 14%

The Opus One 2022 offers savoury spice on the nose with cedar, cocoa dusted cherry, dark chocolate. Slightly darker black fruit profile with cassis, and dark cherry fruit. There is a certain exuberance and power here yet salinity and freshness to balance. The tannins give some grip with a sinewy feel, and there is a graphite note on the finish. Quite fine and directional in style with dense blue fruits.

2022 Overture, Mondavi/Rothschild, Napa Valley Dry | Red | Still | 13.5%

Quite a flamboyant nose of exotic spice, incense and star anise. There are notes of violet and pomegranate that mingle with aromas of kirsch, liquorice, and cocoa. There is freshness and energy, with plenty of flesh and substance – silky and supple tannins and long fruit focused and defined finish.
