"Odedi"

9.0

Purple in color with medium intensity and a wide purplish rim.

Fruit forward on the nose with earth and chocolate notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing red and black fruits with light wood, spices, coffee, earth, dark chocolates, light vegetables and black pepper.

Nice length on the finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.

This Single Vineyard Syrah feels more like a Grenache than a Syrah. Showing nice balance between the fruits and earth notes.

Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years and see how it evolves.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

100% whole Cluster Syrah grapes were aged in (8% New) French oak barrels for 21 months.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Deep ruby color. Balanced tannins, with blackberry and dark fruit on the palate, then comes the spice, espresso, and cocoa on the finish. Love this wine for the price. — 3 months ago

This really leans into the darker aspect of Cab. Dark cassis, loads of dark crushed stone, baker’s chocolate, dark iodiney savory notes. Intense in the mouth, but with surprisingly nice acids for its 14.9 frame. Rich, but bone dry. Still tannic, but it’s soft. — 5 months ago

Good but harsher and more tanic than we remember. Didn’t decant but maybe needs it. Opened up a week later but not the favorite still. Definitely more balanced. . — 3 days ago

Very good as always. Very full bodied and you realize it from what we’re drinking otherwise. — a month ago

This is the sans soufre cab franc @Delectable and it is a step up from the base cuvee. Excellent. — a month ago

New vintage! Pale yellow, excellent clarity. Citrus, thyme and black pepper notes in nose. High acid, good body, lots of skin tannins given blanc de noir style of 100% Cabernet Franc. Flavor descriptors of lime peel, lime, thyme and black pepper apply. Mineral finish — 4 months ago
