Tasting-Mars and Venus Chardonnay

Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Central Valley
Country: Chile
Year: 2013
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 nose had a potent smell of alcohol or chemicals about it. Therefore, I wasn't too eager to try it out. At first, I was very pleased with the smooth taste, however there was a bit of a tangy-ness on the after taste. Although, in the end, it did leave me with hints of apple tastes which I enjoy. This was a decent wine that I enjoyed enough.
