Arger-Martucci 2003 Odyssey Red (Napa Valley)

Country: US / Odyssey
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend California
Winery: Arger-Martucci / Napa Valley

At five years, this Bordeaux blend is ruggedly dry and firmly tannic, with a baked or cooked edge to the blackberries. It’s not very flattering now, but there’s a slim chance it could soften and sweeten with age.
