Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark inky in color with a short purple rim.

Fruity nose of blackberries, sweet plums, cooked cherries, earth, oak, spices, licorice, peppercorn, coffee, chocolates, alcohol and light earth.

Full bodied with medium acidity and smooth.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, earth, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, spices, light medicine and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Syrah from Yakima Valley. Big and fruit forward, with nice complexity and a soft mouthfeel.

This 7 year old from the great 2014 vintage is drinking very nicely now. Drink in the next 5 years.

Wine Enthusiasts 91 points.

Thank you Wendy for sharing this with me.

Good right out of the bottle, very tasty and good by itself. A good porch wine, too.

I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses by the lake.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

$37.

Deep purple color. Aromas of pencil, blackberry jam and cocoa powder. Rich, black fruit on the palate, pepper and smoked cedar finish. Superb!
