Ovid is one of the most exciting new entrants in the world of premium Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. Since their first commercially released vintage in 2005, Ovid has shown what is possible on Pritchard Hill’s Long Ranch Road sector, a stretch of vineyards that starts at Aril, on the lower slopes of the mountain, and winds its way past several top estates, including Brand, Montagna, Martinez, Nine Suns and Colgin, before reaching Ovid. This vertical provides a rare opportunity to track the estate’s evolution from the first release to the present.

This is a remarkable set of wines from Ovid. The 2012s have grown in bottle considerably since I last tasted them about a year ago. Winemaker Austin Peterson describes 2012 as a more relaxed and leisurely growing season than either 2013 and 2014, both of which were early. Ovid is always among the last estates to blend, so I tasted the 2014s in separate lots from barrel, including most of the core lots that are the backbones for the flagship wines. Today, 2014 is shaping up be another terrific vintage at Ovid.

This is a thrilling set of wines from Ovid. No one does a better job in capturing the more finessed side of Pritchard Hill. The wines are aromatically expressive, pliant and full of Napa Valley resonance, but never heavy. Then again, everyone involved at Ovid, from proprietors Mark and Dana Johnson to Managing Partner Janet Pagano to winemaker Austin Peterson has a rare combination of intellectual curiosity, passion and a relentless drive for excellence. In the end, those are the things that make the difference. Ovid blends and bottles late, so the 2013s were still in separate component lots when I stopped by in October 2014. All signs point to another superb vintage. Austin Peterson talks about the 2013s in this video interview.
