"Odedi"

This 7 year old is showing a very pretty gold color.

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing citrus, limes, grapefruits, almonds, vegetables, herbs and white pepper.

This is a very enjoyable aged Unoaked Chardonnay from Sonoma County. Tangy and interesting. Spicy and rich.

This Single Vineyard feels very young. Would be interesting to revisit it in 3 years.

"Odedi"

Yellow in color with a golden hue. Showing some age.

On the nose citrus, light tropical notes, lemons, bananas, limes and spices.

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Dry on the palate with limes, grapefruit, citrus, green apples, vanilla and even light oak notes, herbs, spices and earth.

Nice finish with almonds and limes.

This 6 year old Unoaked Chardonnay is drinking very nicely now. Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Fresh and crisp, and not showing much age on the palate.

Good right out of the bottle, and once it opens up, wild flower notes come in (45 minutes).

This Single Vineyard Chardonnay feels like a white Burgundy. Interesting stuff.

I had it 3 years ago and it is better now. It's my last bottle, but I wish I could try it again in 5 years.

Aged in stainless steel vats for 8 months. A small production of only 3,300 bottles.
