About the manufacturer
Opus One
Opus One is one of the most legendary wineries in Napa Valley and a prime example of Californian winemaking at its finest. Founded in 1979, the winery is the result of a visionary collaboration between Bordeaux's Château Mouton Rothschild and California's Robert Mondavi winery – two giants of the wine world who combined their expertise.
The winery focuses entirely on producing a single, exceptional Red Wine: a blend of Cabernet Sauvignon and complementary Bordeaux varieties. This philosophy of quality over quantity continues to define every bottle. The grapes come from carefully selected plots with ideal growing conditions, and the winemaking process adheres to strict quality criteria.
What makes Opus One special is the harmonious balance between Californian fruitiness and French elegance. Here you'll find powerful, ripe aromas – blackcurrant, plum, cassis – combined with a fine structure and velvety tannins. The Wines are generous, yet never overpowering, but rather captivatingly complex and age-worthy.
At Wine In Time you get these cult Wines with expert advice and knowledge of their significance in wine history.

The 1989 Opus One is a milestone in Californian winemaking and a testament to a visionary partnership between Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild. This legendary winery in Oakville, Napa Valley, has united the expertise of two winemaking worlds since 1979 – French elegance meets Californian power. This blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc originates from California and represents the 1989 Vintage at its finest.
The winemaking process followed classic Bordeaux principles with Californian flair: hand-harvesting at optimal ripeness, temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks, and subsequent aging in French oak barrels. The 1989 Opus One benefited from an exceptional Vintage, which perfectly balanced structure and finesse. This meticulous vinification gives the wine its characteristic depth and longevity.
On the nose, aromas of blackcurrant, cedar, and a hint of tobacco unfold. On the palate, the wine is powerful and structured, with ripe tannins and impressive concentration. Notes of dark fruit, spice, and a subtle toasty note lead to a long, elegant finish that underscores the complexity of this exceptional wine.
