NV Overture

This is quite possibly one of the most difficult wines to source in the whole of the US: it is so elusive and esoteric that many here at F+R were left scratching their heads when asked what it was a couple of years ago. What we discovered made it seriously interesting as it is produced by the iconic Opus One in such absolutely miniscule quantities that it is virtually unheard of. The Overture is a multi-vintage blend of all five Bordeaux varieties matured in new French Oak, designed to drink sooner than its famous big brother and so will be much more approachable in youth. It is also very well priced considering the pedigree at around half the price of Opus One despite being from the same terroir, the same winemaking team and with the same meticulous attention to detail that has made Opus One so renowned. It is usually only available to buy from a handful of select merchants in the States and then strictly limited to just 12 bottles per customer, but thanks to our extensive supplier network, we have been offered a significant parcel coming direct from California and we are extremely excited to be able to offer these to our customers.
