BURGUNDY WHITE WINE
“She gets to keep the chalet and the Rolls, I want the Montrachet”
Anonymous (as quoted in Forbes Magazine)
Probably the most versatile of all the white grapes, it can be grown in most climatic conditions. Here, in Burgundy, it is at its best – where wines from Chablis tend to be unoaked, crisp, yellow apple, passion fruit and high acidity. The Grand Cru will have been aged in oak. The Mâconnais Chardonnay seldom sees any oak, however, the Côte d’Or Chardonnays are mainly produced with oak. These tend to have flavours of lemon curd, vanilla and have a creamy texture.
