Normally $34. Michael Cooper has classified the Odyssey Reserve Iliad Gisborne Chardonnay as an Icon Wine, in his book 'Classic Wines of New Zealand' saying "From one vintage to the next, Rebecca Salmond makes one of Gisborne's classiest wines. "The 2010 ( 5 Stars ) is hand-picked from mature vines in the Kawatiri Vineyard at Hexton and fermented and aged in French oak barriques ( 30% new ), this wine has a creamy, toasty bouquet. Very elegant, youthful and harmonious, it has concentrated stonefruit, grapefruit and slight spice flavours, finely integrated oak and a long, poised finish." M.Cooper
