*La Lejania (Chardonnay)


Name: La Lejania
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: Maule Valley
Country: Chile
Year: 2009
Price: $11.95


Winery review: Medium bodied Chardonnay exhibits a creamy texture and good definition of fruit from the first sip.  A terrific option for Chardonnay drinkers looking for good value.


My review:  Strong, pleasant passion fruit component on the nose that I really liked.  To my surprise, that passion fruit flavor really hit hard on the mid palate.  Usually wines taste one way and smell another, but this one nailed that passion fruit taste for me.  Very pleasant and smooth.  One of the best Chardonnay's I have had.



I tasted this on its own without food.
