The Wonderful Sight of Opus Wineries
The company does not want to make excellent wine; they would rather go for perfection…yes, that is the motto of Opus One, the primer institute that had been making wine without a home of its own for first twelve years of its life. When they built their own winery just across the road from where they have been operating, it turned out to be as magnificent as their wine. A wine magazine has described it as ‘a jewel box-like confection of cream colored limestone that literally rises out of the earth’ in the centre of the vineyard at Oakville.
Many people spend money to make a tour of that place and sample their wines. They all say that both the sample wine and the tour are worth the money spent.
