91/100 | Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "Succulent fruit flavours with a creamy mouthfeel, well supported by fine acidity"
Owner of Odyssey Wines, Rebecca Salmond, has an impressive track-record for making superb wines. Having undergone partial malolactic fermentation with only subtle adjustments to the wine, this single vineyard chardonnay shows creamy butterscotch characters with immense complexity and a bright, approachable colour. The classic regional peach and stone fruit flavours of Gisborne Chardonnay are always front and centre and supported on the palate with a lightly creamy texture and hints of oak spice.
While this is perfect to drink now, this wine can easily cellar for up to five years down the road.

Sam Kim, Wine Orbit writes "It's delightfully fruited with elegant complexity, showing summer peach, rockmelon, nougat, and roasted cashew aromas on the nose. The palate displays succulent fruit flavours with a creamy mouthfeel, well supported by fine acidity, making it harmonious and splendidly drinkable."
The winery writes "This brightly coloured wine has nuances of citrus, ripe peach and melon, with hints of butterscotch and oak. The lees contact and partial malolactic fermentation have added fullness and texture to this approachable and food friendly wine."
