2010 Uma Chardonnay
Mendoza, Argentina - $7
Tired of overpriced, candied fruit-bomb Chardonnays? We would like to introduce Argentina's answer to this wine enthusiast dilemma: $7 dollar Uma Chardonnay produced in Mendoza by the Telteca wine estate as a second label. We've waxed rhapsodic about this winery's Malbec and Bonarda wines only to be astounded once again by their humble Chardonnay. It has ample texture and density with refreshing apple, pear, and citrus flavors. What a find for everyday wine!
Cheers!
