"Odedi"

9.1

Dark purple in color with a wide purplish rim, and medium plus intensity.

Strong nose of black currants, plums, tobacco, licorice, light oak, spices and chocolate notes.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and fruit forward on the palate with black plums, cooked cherries, currants, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth, herbs, peppercorn and tobacco leaf.

Short finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 5-year-old Syrah blend from Columbia Valley is drinking nicely right out of the bottle, but better after 2 hours of airtime.

As it opens up, more earth notes show up and bring more complexity. Feels like a heavy Southern Rhone red.

This 5 year old Syrah is drinking at its peak, and will continue to drink nicely in the next few years.

Rich and fruit forward. Soft and elegant, with a mouth coating feel. Spicy and complex.

A blend of 70% Syrah, 22% Carignan and 8% Mourvedre.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

Honeymoon wine! Lush and robust, nose a little funky, but the taste is phenomenal! Dark berries, kirsch, lomey soil, dried herbs, and smoky! Fantastico! — 5 months ago

Had the 2022 in January of 2024 with chicken tinga. What a nice little wine. Minerality and a touch of citrus with some floral on the nose. Hints of lime on the tongue and a hint of hibiscus on the nose. This was a lot like a New Zealand sauv blanc but with a softer punch. Enjoyed this and wondering about going through the hassle of obtaining this one again. Definitely would if it was easier to get. — 2 years ago

This was terrific. Grilled tri tip with chimichurri- this rocked. Great fruit, light but adequate tannins, some pepper and spice. — 8 months ago

One of Hirsch’s more rugged bottlings, being on the east ridge. Opened way to early. So much acidity and freshness overwhelmed the darker fruits you could tell sat beneath. Lots of promise. Will wait on the next one. — 2 months ago

9.1

Rustic and hearty and a little bit boxy until it loosens. It's shy aromatically. Earthy, bing cherries, prunes, and crushed rosemary.

Tannin, structure, and acid seem intact when a little give would do.

Cali wildness that doesn't feel quite as psychedelic as the Chardonnay (see previous note) — 7 months ago
