In 1978 Baron Philippe de Rothschild and Robert Mondavi sat together at Chateau Mouton Rothschild. In less than two hours the two gentleman had created the dream of Opus One: a single red wine of absolute quality that would reflect the personality and character of both partners. The two men imagined a seamless blend of their winemaking and cultures.
The first of its kind, the joint venture began in Napa Valley with its first vintage in 1979. Released with great fanfare in 1984, Opus One has since grown to worldwide recognition. The iconic winery, which evokes the elegance and balance of the partnership, was completed in 1991.
