"Odedi" 
Deep purple in color with a short purple rim. Fruity nose of blackberries, black plums, oak, earth, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, vegetables, peppercorn, tobacco, herbs, bell pepper and wet leaves. Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs. Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black currants, sweet cherries, wood, licorice, spices, dark chocolates, vanilla, coffee, vegetable, earth, leather, tobacco leaf and peppercorn. Long finish with firm tannins and tangy raspberries. This is a great surprise. This 8 year old Malbec is drinking very nicely now. Well balanced and enjoyable by itself or with food. This Single Vineyard is showing nice complexity and a great mouthfeel. Needs 4 hours in a decanter to open up properly and show tannins and all of the complexity. This was a good vintage in Mendoza and it is showing. Very easy to drink so watch out

Inky Black with a deep crimson rim. Noticeable oak on nose and palate (vanilla). Notes of plum and tobacco. Soft silky supple tannins. Probably needed a longer decant. Obviously quality grapes and terroir but over-oaked. Opened another bottle 63 weeks later on March 8 2019 with consistent notes although the ripe fruit seemed to match the liberal use of oak and the oak didn’t stand out as much as in the earlier tasting. A strong core with many years to go. Increased by a point to 92.

16.5/20 (90/100) Насыщенный аромат черничного варенья, сливового джема, шоколада, ванили и гвоздики. Тельное с довольно высокой кислотностью и густыми, мягкими танинами. Мощно!
