Wine Tasting: Mars and Venus Chardonnay

Name: Mars and Venus
Variety: Chardonnay
Region:
Central Valley
Country:
Chile
Year:
2012
Price:
$5.95


Shop Review: A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortably over-delivers vs. its modest price tage.  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.   - The Vintage Cellar, 01/31/2013

My Review: Has a heavier smell than other white wines, with a hint of pineapple juice.  The wine has a smooth, light feel when drinking it and fruity taste.  This wine was not one of my favorites, it's drinkable, but not something I would invest in.  

Food: I did not try this wine with food.
