CHARDONNAY

This grape variety takes its name from the village of Chardonnay in Burgundy
(France). Chardonnay is probably the most well-known and drunk white grape
variety in the world, and today its produced practically everywhere in the. In
France the grape provides us with the beautifully crisp Chablis (which
sometimes comes as a surprise to some). Oaked Chardonnays (those
which have spent time in oak barrels) tend to be more complex and
layered with notes of vanilla and caramel while un-oaked wines are
fresher and crisper.
Below is a short summary of the key aromas, principal
wine region and best wines produced from this grape variety.
