We started in 2004 blending wines exclusively for family and friends. After over a dozen creations later, we will now make these 250+ case allotments available for all to enjoy.
Name: Odysseas, California Red Blend 20’
Cellared: 18 months French Oak
Varietal: Cabernet & Zinfandel
Production: 250 Cases
The blend is a marriage of Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon. The Zinfandel brings the bright aromas and jammy flavors, while the Cab adds structure and tannin.
Careful blending resulted in the perfect balance of the 2 varietals to showcase a multi-dimensional wine. Aging in French Oak gives a final touch of finesse to the wine.
An Old-World wine meets California. Earth, spice, acidity meet a fruit forward, jammy wine. Aromas of dried herb, anise, blackberry jam followed by generous layers of stone, bright fruit and toast.
The lingering finish is smooth with round, soft tannins. Drink now through 2028.
Our first blend was born as an ode to our relative Odysseas Androutsos, a Greek revolutionary war hero of The First Greek Republic in 1821. After he was captured and thrown off the Acropolis in 1825, his family retreated to the mountains on the Island of Evia. He has been held as a symbol by many of innate Greek Values and Freedom.
