1/31 Tasting - Mars and Venus Chardonnay


Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
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 Chardonnay had a very earthy smell.  I did taste apples but it finished with a strong bitter taste.  The aftertaste kind of ruined the wine for me. 

I did not drink this wine with food.
