Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose of fresh cherries, raspberries, spices, light herbs and chocolate notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with plums, raspberries, black cherries, chocolates, spices, peppercorn, light earth and herbs.

Spicy finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a tasty and easy drinking Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley. Elegant and fruit forward. Soft and smooth.

Nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Spicy and entertaining.

Still young, but already enjoyable even by itself. Would be nice to revisit it in a couple of years.

Fruit forward right out of the bottle, and gets earthier as it opens up. Good by itself as a sipping wine, or with food.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

Ruby in color with a wide reddish/ purple rim.

Fruit nose with red candy, currants, bing cherries and chocolate notes.

Medium in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with cherries, raspberries, spices, light oak, chocolates, light earth and herbs.

Tangy finish with soft tannins and cranberries.

This is a very young Pinot Noir from Russian River Valley. Elegant and easy drinking. Fruity, tangy and engaging.

Needs a couple of years in the bottle to mature properly. Would be nice to revisit it in 3 years.

Good right out of the bottle and good by itself. I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

A more typical denser Russian River Sydow Pinot. Nice food friendly profile.
