Tasting- "Mars and Venus Chardonnay 2011"

Mars and Venus Chardonnay 2011

  • Variety: 100% Chardonnay
  • Region: Castilla
  • Country: Spain
  • 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.
  • My review:
    • This white wine was very sweet and refreshing; it tasted very summer-y to me.  I definitely tasted the pineapple, but also apple.  I thought the apple flavor made it very crisp.
  • I did not have this wine with food.
