A fantastic new Napa Red discovery - highly recommended while this small-production gem is still available.

The Buoncristiani 2019 O.P.C Proprietary Red is drinking spectacularly in its youth, but has the pedigree and structure to develop in the cellar for 10+ years. Layers of cherry, creme de cassis, mocha, spice box, tobacco, and sweet oak come come together in this wine that melds power, finesse, and sophistication in perfect harmony. Fans of Napa reds should not miss this wine. Aged for 20 months in 60% new French oak. 

Grapes for the O.P.C. are sourced from some of Napa’s most prized vineyards, including Hyde, Stagecoach, Hossfeld, and Bennett, creating a wine that further enhances the enjoyment of life. The brothers run all aspects of their business, from growing and production to sales and marketing, ensuring the highest quality standard. If you’re looking for a wine that will make you smile each time you taste it, this is it.

The young Buoncristiani brothers have harnessed their shared passion for creating handcrafted, premium wines and have quickly created a buzz about the brand. Their family winery in the Napa Valley has turned out a Proprietary Red that has been knocking off more famous names in a variety of comparative tastings, including labels that fetch more than three times its price!
