Shop Review: A crisp, unoaked chardonnay with a hint of Sauvignon Blanc coming form the cold region of Mendoza in the Uco Valley. Clear and bright with greenish hues. On the nose it is fragrant and elegant with fresh citrus aromas as well as fruit such as passion fruit, pineapple and white pear. Soft on the mouth with gentle acidity and a marked, pleasant aftertaste. Enjoy with seafood dishes, white meats or simply as an aperitif.

My Review: I really liked the smell of this wine. There was definitely a buttery aroma. Additionally, I did detect a fruit smell, almost like lychee or apple. When tasting this wine, I immediately thought of pears. This wine had a lighter body and was different from the previous Chardonnay I had tried.
I tasted this on its own with no food.
