Tasting-Mars and Venus Chardonnay



Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: 100% Chardonnay
Region: Central Valley
Country: Chile
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95
Shop 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.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg VA)

My review: The smell of the wine was very sour, and I could smell the pineapple mentioned in the review.  The taste, however, was not as intense.  It seemed to me to be a dry wine with a slight sour aftertaste.

I drank this without food.
