Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Deep purple in color with a short purplish rim.

Fruity nose with black currants, black plums, cooked cherries, dried figs, light cedar, dark chocolates and light black pepper.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with black currants, plums, cooked cherries, spices, oak, chocolates, peppercorn, licorice and light herbs.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a delicious Tempranillo from Paso Robles. Fruit forward, chewy and complex. Rich and extracted.

Already drinking beautifully, although still young, and the alcohol is nicely integrated. It is drinking much better than the 2022 vintage I had not long ago.

Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself as a sipping wine. Paired beautifully with my steak.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$65.
