The wine was a success and, in time, Fume Blanc became accepted as a synonym for Sauvignon blanc.
Mondavi successfully developed a number of premium wines that earned the respect of connoisseurs and vintners alike. He also entered into a joint venture with Baron Philippe de Rothschild of Chateau Mouton Rothschild to create Opus One Winery and since the 1990s has set up joint ventures with local partners in Europe, South America and Australia.
