"Odedi"

9.2

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Fruity nose of black currants, plums, cooked cherries, light cedar, tobacco and chocolates.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate and fruit forward with blackberries, black plums, cooked cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, spices, dark chocolates, licorice, coffee, light earth and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a young Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Already drinking beautifully, but needed 3 hours to open up properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.

Fruit forward with nice complexity and a nice mouthfeel. Interesting and entertaining.

Robert Parker 90 points. Wine Enthusiasts 93 points.

A good sipping wine that paired beautifully with my New York Strip steak.

A blend of 81% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 7% Merlot, 2% Malbec and 1% Petit Verdot. Aged for 18 months in (60% new) French Oak barrels.

14.9% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

2022 vintage. Fave of the three new 2022 red releases-Côte A Côte, Optimus Estate Estate Reserve-and also the most affordable. 3.11.26. — 5 months ago

New vintage! Pale yellow, excellent clarity. Citrus, thyme and black pepper notes in nose. High acid, good body, lots of skin tannins given blanc de noir style of 100% Cabernet Franc. Flavor descriptors of lime peel, lime, thyme and black pepper apply. Mineral finish — a year ago

This punches above its weight class. Having had the estate cuvée and cote bottles, this feels a peer. Big deep fruits. Smooth all the way through. Loved it — 3 years ago

Solid and definitely needed the aerator but aging well. Will be excellent in a few years. Deep and earthy. Lots of dark fruit. — 5 years ago

Second time it’s been a lit sweet and almost to the point of over aged. Need to drink this sooner. Still excellent but losing the optimal taste on the finish. — a month ago
