Mars and Venus Chardonnay

Mars and Venus
Chardonnay
2011
$5.95
Central Valley
Chile

Winery 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.

Personal Review: Once again, this white had a flower nectar taste. It actually smelled a little more like chlorine, which did not help itself. It was a very clear wine, almost like water. Once I read the wine description, I could definitely make out a caramel-dipped apple taste, but it was so subtle that it did not overpower the chlorine smell. A fair wine that is probably worth it's six dollar price.
