Tasting - Mars and Venus Chardonnay

Name: Mars and Venus Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Central Valley
Country: Chile
Year: N/A
Price: $5.95
Shop Review: "A very nice value Chardonnay that comfortable 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: This wine was golden, fuller looking, and more glossy against the glass than the previous wine. It didn't have a very nice aroma - it actually kind of smelled like pee. The scent also reminded me of some kind of vegetable. Its taste was strong in acidity, with a neither floral nor fruity flavor. Its taste was very similar to the Pinot Grigio, so it was quite enjoyable. Was not paired with any food.
