  Excellent quality/price ratio. Second time I drunk Planeta Chardonnay, better than last time (July 2019).

  Light gold color. Scent of pineapple, vanilla (or is this an oak influence), apricots, and honey. Light acidity (this is a decent food wine) and a short finish. This wine may last a few years but I would not hold it long. Could be a crowd pleaser for novices...

  Bottle pours to a dark pale gold color. Very expressive bouquet of tropical fruits, pineapple, melon, lemon, and apricots. One sips with high anticipation after the sniff and it is on the palate that the wine somehow lets one down a bit. The fruit is as it were a little lacking and flat in taste. One notices the high acidity more than the fruit. I really wanted to like this wine more based on the bouquet but find myself struggling to do so based on the taste. Very decent wine but not worthy of the 94 pts from WA.

  Pale gold colour. Aromas of peaches. The oak takes back stage to the intense ripe citrus fruit and minerality. The finish is very long and mouth watering.
