"Odedi"

These were never for me, but it's that time of the year.

Medium-bodied with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, strawberries, spices and herbs.

Short finish with soft tannins.

Easy drinking, drinkable and simple. Beautiful label though.

Good right out of the bottle and good for the pool.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

83 points.

$11.

First experience with a Beaujolais Nouveau and what in the hell was I waiting for? Juicy, fruity, plummy, and just the right amount of floral qualities with a little vanilla on the nose, not from oak but from pure sweetness. Way too easy to drink, and that's a compliment.

Leaned in and got a nose full of plum and cherry. Light spices. Juicy, medium fruit, with a much lighter body than I expected. A nice change from my usual selections. Having with a board of things leftover from the weekend.

Zippy and sweet, but in a good way.

Nice, easy-drinking wine. Fruity and medium-bodied. Great with spicy foods. $6.47 at TWM.

Light and easy to drink as expected. Fruity blueberry, plum, and some orange zest. Definitely one of the better Nouveaus that I've tasted.
