Misterio Chardonnay 2007

This is the second of what will be (given PA conditions, a short) series on budget wines. Finca Flichman's Chardonnay is not quite as good as their Malbec, previously reviewed here, but the present sale price of $5.99 does call attention to itself. The wine has practically no nose, however there is a not altogether uninteresting, if decidedly unripe mix of light fruit flavors. Unfortunately, something goes wrong in the aftertaste, resulting in a vaguely medicinal effect. It's up to you, if you can put up with that, this is not a bad choice for a simple fish course.
