Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Year: 2014
Price: $5.95
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: On the nose this was acidic with citrus notes such as lemon and orange zest. On the palate this wine was very light bodied and did not appear to have been oaked. The stainless stelel made this wine very crisp and it had a short finish. The notes on this palate were fruit forward with hints of pear and green apple. Although this wine was not paired with food, I would serve it with grilled chicken salad.
