In 20 set.24, a chance visit to Opus One Winery sparked what would become an extraordinary collaboration. What began as a casual conversation quickly turned into action, with senior leadership and culinary teams from both organizations coming together within weeks to explore the opportunity.
Over the following year, both teams immersed themselves in each other’s worlds, from vineyard walks and tastings with Winemaker Michael Silacci to culinary collaboration with Executive Chef Sean Koenig, and reciprocal visits aboard Regent ships. Through this thoughtful exchange and shared commitment to excellence, a natural synergy emerged.
The Opus One Tasting Experience is the culmination of this journey — an offering born from genuine connection, deep exploration and a shared vision to create something truly exceptional for our guests.

Among the exquisite wines that will be featured across Explorer-class ships hosting The Opus One Experience is Overture.
First created in 1993, Overture by Opus One is a traditional “second wine” meticulously crafted with organically grown fruit from the estate vineyards. The fruit is harvested and vinified with the same care, precision, and attention to detail as Opus One. During and after harvest, the winemaking team rigorously evaluates the wines from each vineyard block and blends only those with the unique aromatics, flavors, and textures recognized as ideal for Overture — a cellar-worthy wine with remarkable freshness, approachability and suppleness.
Opus One Winery is the realized dream of two visionary pioneers: Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild in Bordeaux and Napa Valley icon Robert Mondavi. Founded in 1978, their collaboration brought together the elegance of Old World winemaking and the innovation of the New World, resulting in a singular wine that expresses both time and place.
Opus One reflects the belief that fine wine, paired with exceptional cuisine and shared among friends, enriches life’s most meaningful moments. Robert Mondavi often described this as “the good life,” a philosophy that continues to inspire the winery’s commitment to hospitality and artistry.
Today, Opus One stands as a symbol of luxury, culture and timeless craftsmanship. With every bottle opened and every table graced, the spirit of its founders lives on.
