Our take

What we make of this bottle

In our September 2026 checks, the least this red blend cost was $16.88, and it barely shifted from there store to store. Odd Lot says the grapes for its red blends come from estate vineyards in the southern part of Monterey County, California, certified under the state's sustainable winegrowing program. By official regional guides, Monterey County reaches from cool ground near Monterey Bay into warmer valleys further south, so a county name marks a broad growing area rather than one vineyard.

Odd Lot's own trade-media tasting sheet settles the blend: 60 percent Cabernet Sauvignon and 40 percent Syrah, aged in a mix of American, Hungarian and French oak, a little over a third of it new wood. The producer says the Cabernet supplies the underlying tannin and structure while the Syrah carries fleshy fruit and juicy brightness, describing the pairing as “two grand characters” and “mismatched odd lots” blended into one wine, the producer's phrase. The same sheet's tasting note, also the producer's, calls out ripe blackberry, cherry and plum aromas with tarragon and toasted vanilla, and a smooth palate with well-integrated tannins and a long black-fruit finish.

We do not have a shopper rating for this wine. At the top of the same September 2026 checks, one store had it at $17.88.

Our call: worth a try if a confirmed blend and a stated oak regimen are enough to go on; Odd Lot puts real numbers behind the label, 60 percent Cabernet Sauvignon to 40 percent Syrah, aged in a mix of American, Hungarian and French oak with a little over a third new wood. Pass if you want a shopper track record too; no rating has reached us yet, so the producer's own numbers are the whole case here.

Region guideMonterey County

A little background helps this bottle make sense.

Getting to know Monterey County.

Monterey County runs from cool country near Monterey Bay into much warmer southern valleys. A county origin gives useful context, but the exact AVA or vineyard is needed before treating the area as one growing site.

The place

What the name means

Monterey County is a California county and a wine origin used on labels, not one single AVA. The county contains the Monterey AVA and other federally recognized growing areas with narrower boundaries.

Weather

How grapes grow here

A long valley pulls cool air and fog inland from Monterey Bay. That influence is strongest in the north and weakens toward warmer southern districts, with daily wind and temperature changes along the way.

Soil

What lies under the vines

The regional association reports eight broad soil types across the county, including sandy, loamy, gravelly and calcareous ground. A Monterey County label does not identify which one supplied the wine.

How large the region is

County vineyard area
The regional association reports about 53,000 vineyard acres.
Recognized AVAs
Ten American Viticultural Areas lie wholly or partly within Monterey County.

Places within the region

Monterey AVA
This large AVA runs through much of the county and contains several smaller AVAs.
Other county AVAs
Santa Lucia Highlands, Arroyo Seco, Carmel Valley and Chalone are among the county's separate growing areas.
