Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide reddish rim.

Earthy nose with blueberries, plums, currants, oak, vanilla, vegetables, earth, bitter herbs, almonds, metals, tar, pencil lead, peppercorn and bitter chocolates.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and nice legs.

Dry and earthy on the palate with plums, strawberries, raspberries, vanilla, oak, licorice, cloves, earth, leather, green pepper and peppercorn.

Short finish with round tannins and spices.

A Nice Shiraz blend from South Africa, and a good every day red wine. Nicely balanced with mild complexity. Earthy and a good wine for food, but also by itself.
It has a light mouthfeel with a kick on the ending.

A blend of 83% Shiraz, 10% Grenache and 7% Cinsault. Grapes are grown on granite soil and fermented in concrete vats.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

A touch metallic on the finish, but whooping dose of strawberry and smoke. #movingday
