Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark purple in color with a nice purplish rim.

On the nose, bing cherry, wild flowers, sweet strawberries, wood, vanilla, earth, vegetables, graphite, vinaigrette, spices, cloves and black pepper.

Medium minus in body with medium plus acidity and nice legs.

Dry on the palate with plums, cherries, strawberries, raspberries, vanilla, cloves, tobacco, oak, coffee, light vegetables and black pepper.

Medium finish with soft tannins and black pepper.

This is a drinkable Malbec from Mendoza. Simple, with a watery mouthfeel and nice balance.
Not my style, but everyone else liked it.

Aged for 6 months in French oak barrels.

12.5% alcohol by volume.

Give it about 20 minutes to "open up". Still a little tannic

Dark purple hue in the glass. Sweet chewy tannins with raspberry and spice on the nose. On the palette cedar spice, oak and dark fruit. Excellent Malbec for under $15

Deep ruby color. Blueberry and dark cherry aromas. Well balanced medium finish. Blueberry and tar on taste. Very different than last time we had but still very good

Ciara: not really fruity. It is nice though. Easy to drink.
