Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Pretty nose with wild flowers, red cherries, plums, currants, light tobacco, chocolates, light oak, spices and licorice.

Medium plus in body and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with sweet cherries, blueberries, plums, light cedar, licorice, light earth, herbs, chocolates, black pepper and light black tea.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 2 year old Napa red blend is drinking beautifully already. Elegant and fruit forward, but not in your face kind of wine.

Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years.

Needs time in to open up properly, but good right out of the bottle too. I gave it 3 hours in the decanter.

A good quality wine with potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Showing nice complexity and mouthfeel. Fruit forward, and already enjoyable even by itself. Well balanced, spicy and tangy.

Easy drinking once it opens up. Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$85.
