Current Vintage: 2021
Grapes: 47% Cabernet Franc, 41% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 12% Merlot
Ovid Napa Valley sits high on Pritchard Hill, where its rugged, rocky vineyards produce some of Napa's most distinctive Bordeaux-style wines. Founded by Mark Nelson and Dana Johnson, the estate takes its name from the Roman poet Ovid, with each wine reflecting a different expression of its remarkable mountain terroir.
Hexameter places Cabernet Franc centre stage, offering a more aromatic, expressive interpretation of the estate's powerful mountain fruit. The exceptional 2021 vintage delivered concentration and structure, while meticulous vineyard selection and French oak maturation bring depth and refinement.
Black cherry, cassis and wild raspberry mingle with violets, graphite, tobacco and fragrant herbs. The palate is concentrated yet remarkably elegant, with fine-grained tannins, vibrant freshness and a long, savoury finish. Superb with roast lamb, duck or wild mushroom dishes. A sophisticated Napa Valley Cabernet Franc blend with the complexity and structure to reward years in the cellar.
