Discover the best wines made with Chardonnay as a single variety or as a blend of Quebec.
Whites with many faces: mineral and taut at Chablis (lemon, green apple, flint), opulent and buttery at Meursault and Puligny-Montrachet (hazelnut, brioche, yellow fruits), tense and chalky in Champagne (Blanc de Blancs). Also vinified sparkling and widely exported (Sonoma, Margaret River, Casablanca). A Burgundian variety, a cross of Pinot Noir × Gouais Blanc, half-sibling of Aligoté.
Booming Canadian vineyard (~70 estates, 400+ ha), an extreme continental climate (-36 C) imposing hardy hybrid grapes. A world-renowned speciality: golden ice wines with signature notes of honey, candied apricot, yellow peach, mango and crisp acidity, a sweet-lively balance — made from frozen-harvested Vidal. Fruity Frontenac reds (cherry, plum, spice), lively Seyval Blanc and Saint-Pepin whites (citrus, white flowers). 1.
