🏰 The 2019 Graffeuille & Dumarcher Odyssee is a truly unique and eclectic blend, a testament to the collaboration between Pierre Graffeuille (director of Château Léoville Las Cases) and Matthieu Dumarcher. This red wine masterfully combines 55% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Médoc with 25% Grenache and 20% Counoise or Mourvedre from the Southern Rhône, showcasing a harmonious fusion of two distinct French terroirs. It is 100% organically grown with a very limited production of typically no more than 8,000 bottles. The nose is captivating, brimming with spices like cumin and tangy peppercorn, alongside vibrant notes of fresh blackberries and blueberries. Its medium garnet-purple colour hints at its depth. On the palate, expect vivacious notes of black raspberries, mulberries, and juicy plums, underpinned by crushed blackcurrants, Indian spices, charcoal, and a waft of garrigue. Medium to full-bodied, it's packed with spicy black fruit flavours, supported by velvety tannins and abundant freshness, culminating in a long finish with a lively skip in its step. This structured wine boasts impressive concentration and has the potential to age gracefully for 25 years or more. 🍴 Given its spicy black fruit profile and velvety tannins, the Odyssee 2019 is an excellent companion for grilled red meats, succulent lamb dishes, rich stews, or robust Mediterranean cuisine. 🥂 This intriguing wine is perfect for a sophisticated dinner party, an adventurous tasting with fellow wine enthusiasts, or for those who appreciate innovative blends that transcend traditional regional boundaries. Its rarity and critical acclaim make it a standout choice for special occasions. 【 A unique and highly-rated "Odyssee" blend of Bordeaux Cabernet Sauvignon and Rhône Grenache/Counoise, crafted by renowned winemakers, offering a distinctive spicy black fruit profile. 】
