{"product_id":"opus-one-opus-one-net-2023","title":"Opus One, Opus One, 2023 (Not Eligible for Case Discount)","description":"2023 gave Napa the kind of year Cabernet growers hope for: a cool summer with no notable heat events, and a harvest that came in at an even pace from September 14 to October 16. Winemaker Michael Silacci calls it an exceptional expression of a classic vintage, and that sums up why this bottle matters. This is Opus One built on freshness and balance more than sheer ripeness. The season opened wet, with 36.12 inches of rain including a big storm before budbreak, and from there the vines kept right to the estate's averages through flowering and veraison. The blend is 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, with Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and a splash of Malbec filling out the Bordeaux lineup. It spent 22 days on the skins and 19 months in new French oak. That Bordeaux template was the whole idea from day one: Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi settled their plan in a single hour at Château Mouton Rothschild in 1978, agreeing on one Bordeaux-style blend from Napa grapes, made by French and American winemakers working side by side. Today the house farms four parcels in western Oakville, two of them inside the To Kalon Vineyard, and has held CCOF organic certification since 2021.","brand":"Empire Merchants [EMP]","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50953089974329,"sku":"NYC-W-EMP-`69405`-102626-11","price":449.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0125\/1518\/0601\/files\/IMG-5465_146d1546-512d-4ee9-ac7a-b565f47603a9.jpg?v=1793129989","url":"https:\/\/nyc.flatiron-wines.com\/products\/opus-one-opus-one-net-2023","provider":"Flatiron Wines \u0026 Spirits NYC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
