Tasting- Estrella Chardonnay

Name: Estrella Chardonnay
Vintage: 100 % Chardonnay
Region: Napa Valley
Country: USA
Year: 2010
Price: $5.95

Winery Review: "Intensely flavored and balanced with layers of vanilla, butter and pear, followed by apple, banana and oak.

My Review: This was a surprisingly light and refreshing example of a Chardonnay.  Can definitely smell pear and green apple on the nose and the body is a very light yellow-green.  On the palate this wine exhibits a nice balance of malic acid and sugar and has a hint of vanilla that makes this an easy drinking wine.  I would certainly recommend this wine for light, summer night drinking.
