"Odedi"

#AgedWineTuesday Dark golden/ brownish in color. Sweet nose with lots of flower notes, over ripen apples and spices. Full-bodied with high acidity. Sweet on the palate with pears, overripe citrus fruits, spices, apricots, tropical fruits, earth and bitter herbs. Tangy finish, but too earthy for my taste. This 34 year old is delicious, but a touch unbalanced, with too many earth notes for the fruits. I've had a few vintages of this gorgeous wine, but none of them were this old. I let it breathe for an hour, but it still wasn't as good as I hoped. It could just be this specific bottle, though. A blend of 80% Sémillon and 20% Sauvignon Blanc. Drank from a 375ml bottle. 13.5% alcohol by volume. 92 points. $500.
