Each year, from the many small lots of estate-grown fruit, we choose the best barrels and blend them together to create the new vintage of Ovid Napa Valley. Ovid is a blend of our four Bordeaux varietals, varying in proportion from year to year, but always eloquently conveying this special place. You will find a quote from Ovid on our wine label – a couplet from
Metamorphoses that expresses what we hope to achieve with our wine: Partimque figures rettulit antiquas, partim nova monstra creavit. Partly we recovered the olde, familiar things, partly we created something wondrous and new. Metamorphoses 1:436-7
