"Odedi"

8.9

Dark purple/ inky in color with a reddish rim.

Beautiful nose with wild flowers, red cherries, currents, sweet strawberries, dark chocolates, light tobacco, light wood, Indian spices and black pepper

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with sour cherries, plums, cooked strawberries, spices, herbs, light wood, coffee and peppercorn.

Short finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 8-year-old Petit Verdot from Los Angeles County is still drinking very nicely now. Fruity and elegant. Tangy and interesting.

Needs 90 minutes to open up properly, and show the beautiful nose, which I loved.

Not what one might expect from a California Petit Verdot, however it is very interesting to try.

I had this vintage 3 years ago, and it was drinking better then.

A good food wine that I paired with cheeses and dried meats.

100% Petit Verdot grapes were hand-picked and aged for 44 months in French oak barrels. A small production of only 360 bottles.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

89 points.

Quintessential Santa Rita hills! Terroir driven, concentrated and tight, but you can tell that very good fruit went into this and it will age nicely! — 5 years ago

Couldn't leave California without having a big buttery chard! Soft pineapple and minerals on the nose, big buttery body with good acid that cuts through with lingering pineapple and citrus. When in CA... 😊 — 7 years ago

Come fine serata, per gli amanti sel dolce, è stupendo!
Con i soliti cantucci o una crostata lascia una nota meravigliosa in bocca.
Io lo proverei anche (in stagione ovviamente) con ciliegie nelle marure! 🍒😊 — 8 years ago

Degustation with Delectable friend Byron Hewett and his wife Paulina at Restaurant Dan Arnold in Brisbane. This was the first matching wine, a Muscadet from the Loire Valley. Fresh and grapey. No oak influence, low acid Must drink more Muscadet in the warmer months. — 2 years ago

Big bold California but well balanced and very ageable. I would prefer to drink this in 10 years. Good structure but very young. Too young to drink to the maximum at this point, yet still very enjoyable. Baking spice and juicy plum. Buy now and cellar! — 6 years ago

Classic Central Coast Pinot notes -- cherries, green herbs, and flowers -- done in a silky smooth, balanced, incredibly lush style. I could drink wine like this every day. And would, if I could afford it! — 5 years ago

The better of the bunch. At 7 years old it developed the best so far and held its structure. I’ve come to find Byron drinks better in the near term. Nose of cherry, cinnamon, a touch of clove, and tree bark. This one still may have life left...the tannins hit the outside rim of the tongue and acidity coats the entire top, rushing down the sides. It drinks light to medium and was nice with a slight chill. The palate hits with cinnamon, clove and cherry again. There’s a little dry earth, crimini mushroom element that pops up in the finish. Tasty stuff. — 6 years ago
