Top Notes For
"Odedi"

Dark ruby in color with a wide brick rim. A Very pretty color.

Strong nose of blueberries, black cherries, wood, light vanilla, licorice, light alcohol, wet leaves, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates, dark coffee, light pencil lead and river rocks.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs. Soft and elegant.

Dry on the palate with black cherries, sweet strawberries, cooked blueberries, oak, vanilla, licorice, cloves, herbs, spices, dark chocolates, coffee, vegetables, green herbs, tobacco leaf, earth and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very enjoyable Brunello. Well balanced and delicious by itself or with food. Showing a tangy and spicy finish, which I loved.

This 9 year old from the great 2010 vintage, is showing a great mouthfeel with great complexity. Peaking now.

Wine Enthusiasts 96 points.

Needs 2 hours to open up properly and show some tannins and complexity, so please be patient.

A good sipping wine. I paired it with a charcuterie board of meats and cheeses.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$85.

Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Cherry , Rose water....and I mean that in the silkiest way possible. That said.... there is still a smidge of tannin which takes just a touch away from the full potential. I would say 2025-2029...and it will be liquid gold. Still, lovely at the moment.

Wow, incredible bouquet! Black berries/cherries, licorice, mocha, chocolate, hint of black olive. Long finish, full body, mellow tannins. 2 hour decant. Dad’s 70th.

Perfect for NYE at home. Medium body with medium tannins. Dark brown/purple color. Nice out of the bottle and especially nice after an hour or two decanted

Great bottle, nice structure, but way too tannic for my palate. Enjoyable wine but very tannic.
