Chardonnay:
Chardonnay is a green-skinned grape variety, used to make white wine. It probably originated in the Burgundy wine region of eastern France but is
now found anywhere that grapevines can be grown, from England to Australia. It is vinified in many different styles, from the elegant, "flinty" wines of Chablis (wine) to
rich, buttery Meursaults and New World wines bursting with tropical fruit flavors. It is an important component of many sparkling wines around the world, including
Champagne.
Chardonnay is a mainstay wines of
Australia, as popular as shiraz.
