Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Reddish in color.

Fruity nose and medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with red currants, fresh cherries, light oak, herbs, light earth, spices, chocolates and peppercorn.

Medium finish with fine grained tannins and cherries.

This 6 year old feels very young at the moment. Fruity with mild complexity. Soft and smooth. Elegant with good structure.

Needs time to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Wine Enthusiasts 91 points.

100% Nebbiolo grapes were aged for 2 years in large French oak barrels.

15% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$65.

Nose is rubbery. Nice. Cherries. Feral. I like it. Palate is big and full of tannins. Some heat. Good fruit.

Cherry, leather. Acid pops and tannins run for days. Perfect with Pasta Norma Sorta.

Nice bottle of Barbaresco I picked up at Concetta for $32. Earthy with that bit of rust I like. Would buy again
