Tasting- Maipe Chardonnay

Name: Maipe Chardonnay
Variety: 85% Chardonnay, 15% Viognier
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year:2012
Price: $7.95

Winery review: Brilliant yellow golden color with green hints. The wine is crisp and filled with white peach, pear, green apples flavors, toasty vanilla. Elegant and luscious wine, well balanced. Crisp and long finish. Pairs well with creamy soups, pork, veal, vegetables.


My review:I got a citrusy pear, with green apples on the nose.  Then upon tasting I got a light pear, vanilla, and a buttery taste.  Was not a real fan of the buttery flavor, which makes me believe that I will not try this again in the near future.

This wine was tasted on its own with no food.
