As someone who learned to love wine by tasting the great Napa Valley cabernets that first came to market in the 1970s and 1980s, I've long felt a sense of gratitude to Hubert Opici.
As head of American B.D., a wine wholesaler based in Glen Rock, Opici established the earliest pipeline connecting New Jersey to avant-garde winemakers on the West Coast determined to give Europe a run for its money.
