This is 2019 Ovid Experiment W6.9.
I have really been looking forward to trying this one (my first Ovid white!), and this gorgeous sunny day presented me ample time to sit on the patio and contemplate it! Bright tropical notes on the nose. But I think the real beauty is the texture. It’s like a flower blossoming on your tongue. The floral bouquet of the Rhone varietals makes a strong appearance mid palate. — 5 years ago

Tor Kenward specialized in single vineyard CS from a few top sites, but the “Napa Valley” bottling is a blend of all the vineyards he works with. For 2014 the juice is predominantly from Melanson vineyard from Pritchard Hill, home to some of the most exquisite CS bottles in all of Napa - Chappellet, Bryant Family, Colgin, and Ovid.
Rich in black fruits but laced with red fruit freshness and elements of dusty earth, herbs, chocolate, and raisin. Luxurious mouthfeel. Broad yet precise. A refined beauty. — 8 years ago

My wine tonight great nose but not as big as the Ovids? Great nose and phenomenal fruit flavors. Debate on which is better Ovid or realm, tough choices tonight! — 8 years ago

Great value, some of the more expressive fruit notes that I've had out of a Finger Lakes Riesling — 9 years ago

Last of the weekend Ovids and exactly what I was referring to in other posts. The Experiment reds are generally fantastic. Bold and rich and unique. @Matt Duncan these last two wines are what makes Ovid special. — 5 years ago

Still young in the bottle and almost inky in color. The merlot in the blend softens the tannins considerably. Slightly more acidic than the standard red blend which complemented my rare ribeye cap steak beautifully. — 6 years ago

Extremely smooth and supple. Much lighter and less complex compared to the Ovid. Excellent wine though. — 8 years ago

Andy Erickson's history is hard to beat...Harlan, Staglin, Hartwell, Ovid, Dalla Valle and some place called Screaming Eagle. This one, while not the same notoriety as the others, still shows Mr Erickson's ability to blend an amazing wine. Not overly complicated, but great overall food wine. — 9 years ago

What a vintage on Pritchard Hill! This is THE go to in this zip code (way under The neighbors are Ovid & Colgin. I can’t believe this is 7 years from vintage - it’s still very young with lots of currant and blueberry with mocha. Tannins kick in in the mid palate and a lengthy finish. With a rack of lamb - proof God loves us! — 5 years ago
