Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim, and medium plus intensity.

Fruity nose of raspberries, strawberries, light earth, herbs, light oak and chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

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

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a very tasty Pinot Noir from Santa Lucia Highlands in California. Rich and fruit forward, complex and interesting. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel.

This Single Vineyard Pinot Noir is still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly. Will continue to age nicely in the next 8 years, and showing potential to become a 93+ point wine.

100% Pinot Noir grapes were aged in (35% new) French Oak barrels for 10 months. A limited production of only 5,200 bottles.

14.1% alcohol by volume.
