But the fact that I have had lunch with her more times than any other supplier through the course of my career, says that Opus One has been focused on marketing their product to the best accounts in the marketplace for at least the 20 years that I have been in the wine business.Īlthough the style has changed slightly over the years we have to commend Opus One for its consistency. France found this a little confusing as she said Opus One does not do any advertising at all. I always site Opus One as the best marketed winery of our time. I have been attending the annual Opus One luncheon for almost 20 years now and that is about as long as France Postner has worked for Opus One making her the longest tenured employee at this prestigious first growth of Napa Valley. that will get me out of the store for lunch during the week. When my customers call I like to be here, but Opus One, Lafite Rothschild, Penfolds Grange, Domaine de la Romanee Conti, etc. There are very few things that will get me out of the office around lunch time. To meet Michael and have him sign your favorite vintage just stop by the Wine Watch with your favorite bottle of Opus One from your cellar or browse the selection of Opus One in our cellar, wither way Michael will be here between 3-4pm on Thursday March 31st to talk Opus One.
Michael Silacci, the winemaker for Opus One winery will be in the store from 3-4pm on Thursday March 31st to sign bottles of Opus One and answer questions regarding the new releases. Opus One offering and Bottle Signing with Winemaker Michael Silacci Even the French tasters, Pierre-Emanuel Taittinger, Eric Rousseau and Pierre Lurton had nice things to say about this first growth of the Napa Valley. The 1979 showed brilliantly on that occasion as it did last year when we showed it at the great wine seminar with Opus’s CEO David Pearson. We have always been big fans of Opus One and have hosted several events over the years with this winery including an event that put all 26 consecutive vintages released at that time of Opus One on the table. Well, it is kind of ironic that the wines from this winery are now getting the best press ever. Are there two men that walked the earth over the last 100 years that were more important to the wine industry as a whole? I am talking about the two original partners in the Opus One project Robert Mondavi and the Baron Philippe de Rothschild.
