Harvest Draws Near

Grape clusters near harvest

As harvest draws near, the Opus One Estate vineyards show promise of an exceptional vintage.

The winemaking team is actively walking the vineyards, tasting berries to closely monitor flavor development. With harvest anticipated in mid-September, preparations are well underway – from maintenance on harvest equipment and tractors to readying bins and barrel racks.

In the cellar, we successfully completed the bottling of Opus One and Overture 2023, allowing the wines to begin their next chapter in bottle. Meanwhile, we are welcoming a new arrival: pristine French oak barrels for this year’s vintage, setting the stage for another remarkable season of winemaking.
