Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark ruby in color with an orange/ brick rim.

Nice and aromatic nose with blueberries, blackberries, cherries, oak, vanilla, licorice and black pepper.

Medium bodied with medium acidity and nice legs.

Bone dry on the palate with plums, cherries, strawberries, blueberries, vanilla, spices, oak, dirt and peppercorn.

Medium finish with round tannins and black pepper.

This is a nice, aged Merlot, complex and unique, yet, very dry. Nice by itself or with grilled meats.

87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc. Aged for 20 months in French oak barrels.

14% alcohol by volume.
