Famiglia Bianchi Chardonnay 2014, San Rafael, Mendoza, Argentina: Lovely Argentine Chardonnay, especially for the price! Rich and round white wine, with green apple aromas and a toasty goodness.

Leaves you longing for more. Produced by Valentín Bianchi, this is an amazing robust Chardonnay for the money! The grapes are hand-picked and the wine is 100% barrel fermented for 8 months.

Torres Viña Esmeralda 2013, Catalunya, Spain: This wine takes its name from the emerald colour of the Mediterranean. There’s no oak on this aromatic blend of mostly muscat (Moscatel) grapes with some gewürztraminer grapes, that grow in the mountains of north-east Spain. A lovely honeysuckle finish. Simply divine even at triple the price it is. Stunningly lovely white floral notes along with some lychee and white melon. So, so pretty as an aperitif or with fresh seafood. Highly recommended. Try it with Asian dishes and mild to medium curries. Drink: 2013-2017. 113696 11.50% MD 750 mL  $14.95 Score: 90/100. February 20, 2015 Best Value White Wine. Spectacular Spicy Wine Full Review
