"Odedi"

9.2

This is a delicious Sauvignon Blanc From Sancerre. Showing citrus, green apples, minerals and spices.

Medium bodied with racing acidity. Crisp and refreshing.

Dry on the palate with a nice finish.

Good by itself or with food. I paired it with lobster on the grill.

Great nose and palate. Very tasty.

13.5% alcohol by volume.

‪ravishing rosé ✨ alert: I included this $13 ‘17 #LaSpinetta Il Rose di Casanova in an event I did in Westchester last night, and true to its name, it sent hearts racing ❤️ . Refreshing but uncommonly flavorful (cherry, peach, maybe some orange peel), with zippy tang and a long, lovely finish. Bonus: the label features the majestic rhinoceros 🦏 etched by genius artist Albrecht Dürer in the sixteenth century. If I had a summer house, this #wine would be stocked like soda. 🥤 ‬

The best Chablis for the price. $20 and you get all the complexity you could want in a village level wine. Lemon peel, racing mineralty, tart green apple, and lively acidity. — 8 years ago

BTG Compline, dusty, mushroom, dried flowers, dried herbs, nervy red fruit and racing acid. Love the tension this has given its extended elevage. — 7 years ago

The 1961 Brane-Cantenac is a wine that I have been lucky enough to taste three or four times before. It’s a wonderful 1961 that comes racing out of the blocks, displaying vestiges of red fruit, autumn leaves, mint, chlorophyll and blood orange on the nose. It just feels multifaceted and more complex than the 1959, even if it does not quite reveal the same vigor. The palate is medium-bodied with fine tannin and impressive concentration. It is maybe a little rustic in style but certainly shows more depth and concentration than the 1961 Rauzan-Sègla that I tasted a month earlier. There is a touch of Earl Grey and tobacco lingering on the finish. Maybe this is in gradual decline, since it does not match the stellar bottle tasted back in 2010, yet it remains a great Margaux. Tasted at the Brane-Cantenac vertical at the château. (Neal Martin, Vinous, January 2019) — 7 years ago

Blueberries, cherry liqueur, wet rocks, iron, thyme, anise. Racing acidity, minimal velvet tannins, medium bodied, juicy-slight silk like texture, finished earthy-tart fruits. A lot darker than Beaujolais gamay, mineral forward in a heavier way. — 8 years ago
