"Odedi" 
This is a delicious Grenache blend from Priorat. Full bodied with medium acidity. Dry on the palate with nice complexity. Elegant and rich. Showing black fruits with cedar, licorice, dark chocolates, coffee, earth, herbs, spices, tobacco leaf and peppercorn. Tangy finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries. Needs a couple of hours to open up properly, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. The 2016 vintage was great in Priorat, and it is showing. A blend of 80% Grenache, 15% Syrah and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Aged for 16 months in oak, concrete and amphora vats. 15% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $50.

Deep violet. Powerful aromas of black raspberry and boysenberry, candied licorice and incense, joined by building spiciness. Juicy and seamless on the palate, displaying pliant red and blue fruit, succulent herb and floral pastille flavors that show sharp delineation and noteworthy energy. Delivers a suave blend of power and finesse and finishes extremely long, with solid mineral thrust and fine-grained tannins that add shape and gentle grip. (Josh Raynolds, Vinous, March 2021)
