Chardonnay
Chardonnay proved so popular that it almost became a brand of its own with many unaware it was the name of a grape. It is said to be the blank canvass on which the winemaker can demonstrate his art. It has a great affinity with oak and is responsible for all the great white wines of Burgundy; it is a major component in Champagne; it is grown all over the South of France and in the Loire. Other countries such as Spain and Italy also have plantings. In the New World, most countries produce single varietal Chardonnay, though it can be blended in less expensive wines to add class and depth. There are great examples from all countries.
