After having the Oveja Negra, I am on to the next wines from Vici Wine and Spirits, and I went with the Chilensis Reserve Chardonnay.

Before I started to drink it, I was wondering about the basic aspects of varietals; what grape gives what taste, and along that path, I realized that depending upon the winemakers mojo and voodoo used in production, that really is a small amount of the puzzle.

That said, this wine is different, reminding me of both the traditional tropical notes of Chardonnay (vanilla, papaya, pineapple, apricot), but also with some of the citrus aspect of Sauvignon Blanc.

This wine is made for relaxing, alone or with light fare. I wouldn't pair it with anything heavy, but leave it just for a nice coupling with a sandwich and/or a salad. This reminds me of the beach; particularly, the light breeze coming off the water while the sun caresses your skin.
