Ovid Proprietary Red Hexameter Napa Valley 2021
Certified Organic
18% OFF RETAIL!
Ovid Hexameter 2021 is a stunning expression of Cabernet Franc from the estate’s high-elevation vineyards atop Pritchard Hill. Deeply aromatic and complex, it weaves together notes of black cherry, violets, graphite, and warm spice with remarkable precision. Powerful yet graceful, this is a wine of layered elegance and long, poetic finish—true to its literary namesake.
About The Producer
Ovid Napa Valley is a singular, dynamic and continuous experiment in terroir, nestled at an elevation of 1,500 feet on a secluded mountaintop in the western reaches of Pritchard Hill. Here, iron-rich volcanic soils, abundant sunshine and chaparral flora alchemize to reveal focused, long-lived wines that celebrate their source. Our four estate wines are sourced from our organically farmed fifteen acre vineyard, planted in one-acre blocks with rootstock and clonal combinations of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot and Syrah.
