Product Description
AG96 The 2012 Hexameter is radiant, supple and wonderfully expressive. Lifted and nuanced, with sweet red berry fruit, cinnamon, mint, cedar and new leather. A wine of precision and nuance, the 2012 speaks to finesse. Open-knit, expressive and welcoming, with fabulous integrity, nuance and delineation, the Hexameter is the most accessible of Ovid's 2012s and the first bottle I would touch. Above all else, the 2012 speaks to finesse.
RP95 The 2012 Proprietary Red Blend Hexameter is a 175-case blend of 43% Cabernet Sauvignon, 53% Cabernet Franc and 4% Merlot. It boasts beautiful notes of spring flowers, forest floor, mulberries, boysenberries and blueberries (true mountain cool climate fruits), a deep, savory, concentrated style, velvety tannins, decent acidity and a luscious mouthfeel. This is a beauty to drink over the next 10-15 years.
