Complex, nice sharp tannins, some farm/hay aromas alongside red fruits. Delightful! — 3 years ago

The fruit for the Oderro Poderi e Cantine “classico” comes from a combination of the Bricco Chiesa in La Morra and the Bricco Fiasco in Castiglione Falletto MGAs. The former being considered Oddero’s “home vineyard”.
Poured into a decanter about 30min before service. In the glass, the wine displays a beautiful ruby color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with very pretty notes of Montmorency cherry, cranberry, pomegranate, a bed of roses, orange peel, fresh sage, eucalyptus and crushed rock. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, drying and grippy. This is all about balance and freshness. These are quite giving already but undoubtedly have a long life ahead. Drink now with patience or through 2044. — 8 months ago

Asian spices, minerals roasted meats and lemons. Delicious. — 6 years ago
This is a delicious wine. Strong but light. Earthy. The minerals come through undoubtably due to the altitude of the crop. Highly recommend. — 8 months ago
Beware, I’m sprinkling in some sweeter treats here…macerated 40 days after drying on the vine—yielding a very natural 107g/L residual sugar. Jammmmm-tastic like raspberry jam, a lick of acidity, and almost a hint of white chocolate—with air, a little leather shows up. Utterly craveable. — a year ago
Beautiful light red semi dry with a little spice and lots of blackberry and smell of ocean and thyme and pepper. Needs to be chilled. — 5 years ago

Sappy, herbal and red fruit-forward on the nose, opening into some florals and dust. The palate is similar to the nose and even slightly spicy, like a nice pizza sauce garnished with lilacs. — 5 months ago
