Trying an aged Howell Moutain. Ripe blackberry, prunes, bramble, leather, melty rubber, gas station fumes, candied pecans and cola on the nose. Mellowed and integrated ripe blackberry, prunes, char, vanilla on the palate, with some herbal spice and black tea on a nice long finish. Looks like folks weren’t impressed by the other reviews but I really liked it. :) — 4 days ago
Beautiful Bordeaux that will probably last another 10-15 years, but we won’t know because it’s drank tonight!! Cherry, fruit on the front, lingers to tobacco / leather on the back pallet. Completely quaffable and still has some years left, although not many! Beautiful portrayal of Bordeaux!! — 11 days ago

"Odedi"
This is a very tasty Riesling from Napa Valley.
Medium-bodied with medium-plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with a smooth, creamy mouthfeel.
This 6 year old is showing lemons, yellow apples, petrol, plastic, cream, earth, minerals, herbs, sea salt and white pepper.
I had it a year ago, and it seems like it is less fruit forward now.
Spicy and entertaining. Good by itself or with food. Showing nice complexity and better when not too cold.
12.8% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
