"Odedi"

9.2

Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.

Full-bodied with medium acidity.

Very dry on the palate with nice complexity and a nice mouthfeel.

Showing black fruits, cedar, licorice, chocolates, dark coffee, pencil lead, earth and peppercorn.

This is a delicious Tempranillo from Ribera Del Duero in Spain. Elegant and rich. Fruit forward and nicely balanced.

Starting to drink beautifully now, and needs a couple of hours to open up properly, so be patient.

Wine Enthusiasts 96 points. Wine Advocate 95 points.

This 5 year old Tempranillo is already complex, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

100% Tempranillo grapes, from 40 year old vines, were aged for 14 months in oak barrels and concrete vats.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

Wine color is starting to show the browning edges of oxidation but still has that robust purple garnet hue. Aroma is complex betraying the heavy alcohol with a spicy hint of heat. But carried with all that is the peppery, tobacco, plummy cherry notes of the grape. Drinks magnificently. Loads of jammy fruit without a heavy sweetness. Definitely leans towards a medium body with a nice sour cherry acidity to round its finish. Oak is present but only to support never to stand out in front. — 23 days ago

A bit of hay/grassy herbal notes, with a pretty strong minerally crushed stone almost saltiness to it. Very light but lots of nose and flavor. — a month ago

2000 Unico is drinking very well but still so young. The millennium vintage will live forever. — 6 days ago

This is a wine that fits perfect on a hot summer day sitting outside enjoying the weather. Incredibly crisp and fresh, with the perfect amount of acidity. Pale in color, with great minerality. Very very good and would drink again — a month ago

Just lovely. The balance is extraordinary though I think another 5 yrs will only improve. — a month ago

A big austere whiff of cherry leather with little accents of mushroom, red roses, and spruce.

Etna core; sour, saline, sun and tannins big as the ABV of almost 16%. — a month ago

9.0

Deeper ruby , slightly narrower garnet , ruby rim . Quite richly fruited with a meaty , smoky character also , red plum , dark cherry , blackberry , touch of spice . On the palate this has quite good density and grippy tannin , balanced acidity , darker ripe fruits. Reasonable length . Quite polished and modern in style . Needs time , come back in 5 years and will last well at least a further 10 . — 2 days ago
