Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark purple in color with a wide reddish rim.

On the nose, blueberries, cherries, plums, wood, earth, dirt, bell pepper, vegetables, herbs, graphite, wet leaves, tobacco and peppercorn.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity and nice legs.

Dry on the palate with cherries strawberries, red currants, bitter herbs, raspberries, earth, green vegetables, licorice, spices, tobacco leaf, pencil lead, black pepper and wood.

Medium finish with firm tannins and bitter vegetable.

This Côte du Rhône red is still drinking nicely, but on the way out. Not fully balanced anymore, but showing nice complexity. Earthy with lots of vegetable notes. A good everyday wine.

Needs an hour to open up properly and show some tannins, but not as fruity as right out of the bottle.

A blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Syrah and 10% Mourvedre.

13.5% alcohol by volume.



$12.

So fresh! Raspberries, bright red cherries, so fruity. Serve 3 degrees cooler than room temperature and it's a great start to Wine Wednesday!
