Tasting: Mars and Venus Chardonnay



Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Chile
Country: Spain
Year: 2011
Price: $5.95
Winery Review: A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortably over-delivery 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 wine was very unusual because it was not aged in barrels. It was very clear and clean and had an unusual smell to it. It did not have as strong of a flavor as the first wine.
 I did not have it with food.
