Hatte einen anderen wein vor augen, auch von Los Lomos. Zwischenzeitlich hab ich herausgefunden dass Los Lomos, nebst Victoria Torres, ein spitzenproduzent auf den Canarias ist. Dieser hier: viel blütenaromen, mineralisch, zesten, mandeln, mittellanger abgang, leichte sherrynoten, wild, hauch oxidativ, komplex. Wunderbarer wein. 14.2% - Kann sicher gut altern — 15 days ago

I’ve had the hardest time remembering my new zip code even despite having written it a thousand times in the last few weeks... maybe I’m still dreaming... anyway...
It was still 90° at 7:30 so I went in search of Sauvignon Blanc. Sunshine Foods is the local grocery and has exactly the surprisingly very good selection that should be expected from a specialty local grocer in the heart of Napa Valley. I’m not going to lie, I bought this wine so that I would finally learn my zip code (even if I did let somebody ahead of me at checkout so I could finish researching it).
The winemaker is Sam Baxter of Terra Valentine and it’s sourced from the San Mateo Ranch Vineyard in Rutherford. At $19 that was good enough for me. Loaded with ripe pear and fresh, almost underripe melon, lime zest, and stony minerality, with just a tinge of honeysuckle that softens the corners. The acid is relatively toned down but still present enough to satisfy most purists. — 8 years ago
"Odedi"
Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish/ brick rim.
Beautiful nose of red fruits with light cedar, earth, herbs, chocolates, black pepper, tobacco leaf and wild flowers.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with blueberries, black currants, cooked plums, cherries, cedar, spices, licorice, chocolates, light earth, herbs, tobacco leaf, dark coffee and peppercorn.
Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.
This is gorgeous Pinot Noir from San Mateo country in California. Elegant and nicely balanced with a nice mouthfeel. Soft and smooth, complex and engaging.
Good right out of the bottle and easy drinking.
This 12 year old Pinot Noir is still showing lots of fruits. Drinking at its peak, and will not get any better from this point.
A beautiful sipping wine that will also pair nicely with food.
13.5% alcohol by volume.
93 points.
