Chardonnay
Shar-doe-nay
Chardonnay can produce quality wines in a wide range of climates, with a real varied style. In cool climates like Champagne or Chablis it produces a lean steely wine with pronounced acidity. In warmer climates it develops buttery, honey notes whereas hotter climates, it's richer in body with the flavour of tropical fruits.

In 1814, Jean-Joseph Moreau, a young cooper fell in love with the daughter of a local winemaker, giving birth to J.Moreau & Fils one of the oldest houses in Chablis. Today, it's led by Lucie Depuydt, born and raised in Chablis’ vineyard. 150 million years ago, the area was under the ocean, so it has distinctive soils, rich in oyster’s fossils. This history combined with the cool climate of the region produces crisp, mineral wines. It helps to explain why the wine pairs so well with seafood.
The Country
France
Following on from a fantastic vintage the year before, French vineyards endured a mixed bag of weather conditions in the early part of the growing season followed by a long, hot summer which produced some memorable wines, even to rival to the excellence of the previous year.
