Obertura Opus Uno 2021

Taste Notes: Opus One Overture 2021, as a non-vintage blend primarily derived from lots not included in Opus One, offers a complex and approachable aroma of ripe red fruits like cherry and plum, intertwined with notes of cassis, cedar, and subtle hints of vanilla and spice. On the palate, it is elegant and well-balanced, showcasing a harmonious blend of red and dark berry flavors, a touch of graphite, and refined tannins. It typically offers a softer entry and a more immediate accessibility than its older sibling, Opus One, while maintaining a sense of refinement and a lingering, pleasing finish.

Food Pairings: This refined red blend pairs beautifully with a range of sophisticated dishes. It complements roasted chicken with herbs, grilled lamb chops, or pan-seared duck breast. It also pairs well with mushroom risotto, pasta with a rich meat sauce, or aged, firm cheeses like Gouda or cheddar. Its versatility makes it a good choice for fine dining where a more approachable yet elegant red wine is desired.
