Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Light purple in color with light intensity.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing raspberries, strawberries, light wood, spices, coffee, dark chocolates, earth and tobacco leaf.

Nice length on the finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This Barbera d'Alba is spicy and showing good structure. Fruitier on the palate than on the nose.

Still young, and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food.

100% Barbera grapes were aged for 12 months in large oak barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

$40.
