Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Nice ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide purplish rim.

Fruity nose of blueberries, plums, cherries, licorice, oak, earth, vanilla, coffee, mocha, smoke, light vegetables, chocolates and black pepper.

Medium bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and fruity on the palate with plums, cherries, sweet raspberries, light wood, vanilla, milk chocolates, coffee, peppercorn and spices.

Medium plus on the finish with soft tannins and tangy cranberries.

This is a nice Zinfandel from California. Drinks very lightly for a Zinfandel, but not in a bad way. Easy drinking with mild complexity and a bit jammy. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food. I paired it with a burger.

14.4% alcohol by volume.

87 Points.

$16.

Pale ruby, fresh plums, mild pepper, extremely smooth, low ABV for zin. A great approachable zin, and a tremendous value.
