About Winery

In 1970 Robert Mondavi and Baron Philippe de Rothschild met for the first time, and ten years later they announced their joint wine venture, which was to be a Bordeaux-style wine made in Napa Valley. When the first vintage of Opus One was released, it became know as America's first ultra-premium wine, establishing a category of wine
priced by the bottle at $50 and above.
