Tasting #8 - Chardonnay #2

Name: Mars and Venus
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Castilla
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95

Vintage Cellar Review: A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortably over-delivers vs. its modest price tag. No oak here, just bushels of clean, crisp, Chardonnay apple and stone fruit with a hint of caramelized pineapple. Juicy and clean, this is a mid-weight white that's just perfect for parties or weeknight sipping.

My Review: The wine had a pale, silvery color. The aromas weren't very strong so I wasn't able to detect anything. It was a light initial taste of citrus and pineapples. The ending was a little dry.

This wine was tasted without food.
