+1 hour decant(lots of chunky/fine sediment). A prodigious inky dark purplish garnet color. On the nose: dark cherry, blackberry, wet forest floor, leather, vanilla, herbaceous. Taste: silky smooth, concentrated, juicy wine with dark cherry, tobacco, cedar, graphite, and a dried herb-chocolate espresso medium finish. YUM! — 12 days ago

Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Aged in French oak (85% new) for 12 months, medium Ruby with aromas of red berry fruit, floral and herb spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and tart raspberry with smoky and pleasant earthy herb notes, wrapped in vivid acidity and nice mouthfeel. Fine chalky tannins, good balance, long finish ending with fruit, smoke and oak character. Nice. — a month ago

Fresh, sappy, tart essence of raspberry.
A slightly funky nose full of energy and purity.
Bright & light on the palate, with juicy acidity and a fun light tannic grip. This has great character, brilliant energy & depth and is so much non Aussie jam. Great drinkability.
Love it! — 5 months ago

Magnum. PnP. Nice with solid fruit and great depth. Nothing that blew me away but wouldn’t turn down a glass.

Finished days later and was better, upgrading to 9.5. — a month ago

Actually Sector Red 8, not Adelaide Hills. DELICIOUS. Light but full flavor. Let aerate, swirl around. Serve chilled. Good on day 2. — a month ago

"Odedi"

9.1

A pretty color of ruby, with a wide brick/ reddish rim.

Full bodied and elegant.

Dry on the palate with medium acidity.

Showing red currants, plums, cherries, wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, tobacco leaf, herbs and black pepper.

Medium finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 15 year old Rioja Reserva is drinking very nicely now. Showing nice complexity at this point.

Still young and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. A very tasty aged Rioja, and a good food wine.

Robert Parker 95 points.

A blend of 75% Tempranillo, 15% Garnacha, 5% Mazuelo and 5% Graciano. Aged in used American oak barrels for 6 years.

13% alcohol by volume.
