Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Country: Chile
Region: Central Valley
Year: 2013
Price: $7.40
Tasting Notes: 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: I liked what was going on here with this Chardonnay. It was a little wild sure, but still not bad a value wine. I got a little pear at first on the nose. I could sort of discern a honey and stone component as well, but this wine definitely packed a little bite.
I had this wine directly after eating a rice crispy treat and so my palette was somewhat in dismay when sampling this wine.
