Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Deep purple in color with a purplish rim. Nice color. Teeth staining color.

Beautiful fruity nose of blackberries, prunes, figs, black currants, raisins, vanilla, cooked raspberries, eaucaliptus, earth, alcohol, vinaigrette, light vegetables, graphite, leather, smoke, toasted oak, chocolates, mocha, spices and peppercorn.

Full bodied, extracted and bold, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and extremely fruity on the palate with blackberries, sweet plums, cherry pie, dried figs, tobacco, spices, chocolates, peppercorn, dark coffee, tobacco, wood, licorice and vanilla.

Long finish with firm tannins (after an hour) and cherries.

This is a wonderful Petite Sirah from Paso Robles, California. Well balanced with nice complexity.
A little jammy, but Very tasty with lots of chocolate and coffee notes.

Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up. Enjoyable by itself as a sipping wine. After 2 hours in a decanter, it gets less jammy with hugh tannins. So give it some time...

This would age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

14.7% alcohol by volume.

Well, welcome to another Friday and tonight I have opened this Petite Sirah from the Opolo Vineyards of Paso Robles. I tend to enjoy the Petite Sirah when it is done well. The nose is expressing itself to me with notes of Black plum, grape jam, licorice, sweet oak and camp fire smoke. On the palate I am receiving blackberry, black plum, licorice and black pepper. There is more oak then I like, lots of big chewy tannins, a med + acidity, and a good long finish. I purchased this for around $24.99 at my store of choice.

v13. Very good. Soft candied cherry and smoke meat nose. Rich, deep, black cherry licorice fruit. Smooth, luscious finish.
