AMERICAN WINE

If you have enjoyed the prior "vintages" of Cain Cuvee, you will love the NV15. Those of you who have followed Cain Cuvee know that it is not your typical Napa red wine; no big, inky, oaky blockbuster here. Cain Cuvee is intended to sit lightly, refreshingly (dare we say, lovingly?) on your palate. There is all the fruit that you could want, but the Cain Cuvee is not fruit juice. It is, most assuredly, fine wine for serious wine-lovers who value complexity, balance and finish. The Cain Cuvee is for those who know that wine doesnet have to be big to be good.

WINE SPECTATOR 91 POINTS - "Packs in a lot of complexity, with aromas of apple, fresh ginger and rubber that lead to crisp and layered flavors of raspberry and spice. Drink now."

Like many of the great Bordeaux houses, Opus One produces a second wine. This is not a wine made from the outside sourcing of grapes; rather it is produced from unused / leftover blending components from Opus One. The team at Opus farms their Oakville property meticulously and depending on the vintage, the different Bordeaux Varietals broken into blocks will thrive differently year to year. Mother Nature and the winemaker decide what the percentage of varietals shall comprise Opus each vintage so the blend is always changing a few percent each release. The team ages the left over Opus components and will blend 3 vintages worth of leftover components to craft a more “drink now” style of Opus. At a fraction of the cost, this is a beautiful way to experience such an awesome property so rich in history!
