2023 Odette Estate Reserve Chardonnay Napa Valley

(96 Points) The nose is powerful yet shows finesse, giving hints of orange blossoms, salted nuts, preserved lemons, lanolin and struck match. The palate has fine acidity and impressive length, with depth of flavor that lingers for minutes and high mineral tension supported by underlying texture and weight. Delicious now and for years to come. The best bottling of this wine to date, coming from a new winemaker and the cool 2023 growing season. Drink or hold. Screw cap.
