"Odedi"

9.0

Pale lemon in color.

Fruity nose of white flowers, apples, light wood, spices, white tea, citrus, herbs and light earth notes.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with pears, citrus, apples, light oak, spices, light earth, herbs and sea salt.

Spicy finish with lemons and light almonds.

This is a tasty Viognier from California. Smooth and soft. Elegant and rich.

Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime. Better when properly chilled.

Showing nice complexity and good balance. Neither bitter nor tart, which is how I like it. Spicy and engaging.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

A blend of 93% Viognier, 5% Roussanne and 2% Marsanne. Aged in (37% new) French Oak barrels for 8 months. A small production of only 3,300 bottles.

13.7% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

38% Petite Sirah, 24% Grenache, 15% Tempranillo, 14% Cinsault, and 9% Aglianico. Unusual! And delicious! Dark color, with a nose giving off a rich, pure melange of red and black berry scents, along earthy underbrush. Mouthfilling, with loads of dark berry and sandstoney earthy notes. Nice savory, minerally notes appear in the back half of the finish. The mouthfeel is a little tacky thanks to the Petite Sirah, but not overwhelmingly so. Nice balance at 14.6% alc. Wish I brought back more from our visit there last summer! — 4 months ago

Bought at the winery in August. Light, but so fragrant and flavorful. Works beautifully with our Pollo alla Romana. Cinnamon-spiced berry juice and crushed rock on the nose. Broadly-flavored. Deep spiced berry juice that turns savory in the clingy finish. Great balance. Such a fun wine. — 10 months ago
