Tasting- Mars & Venus Chardonnay

Name: Mars & Venus Chardonnay
Region/Country: La Mancha, Spain
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.

My Review: When I smelled the wine I got scents of apple. I thought the taste was very alcoholic which I do not like, but I also tasted a tart apple flavor which was interesting. If the wine didn't taste so strong I would like it a lot better; it really over powers the fruit flavor. I did not have food with this wine.
