Highlights
- Your wine is crafted by winemaker Austin Peterson and embraces the paternal tension between Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc
- Perched on the western reaches of Pritchard Hill at 1,400 feet, our 15-acre vineyard was planted in 2000
- OVID’s rocky red, volcanic soils and west-facing blocks yield focused and long-lived wines
- Organically farmed vineyard is divided into one-acre blocks with rootstock and clonal combinations of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot and Petit Verdot
Description
2021 marked a spectacular vintage at the OVID estate. Inspired by this incredible season, we chose to highlight two of our favorite blocks of Cabernet Sauvignon, selected for their depth, power and grace. We combined these with our most adored Cabernet Franc blocks that brought vibrancy, tension and beautiful harmony to this undeniably delicious blend.
