{"title":"Chardonnay Wines","description":"\u003cp\u003eAs one of the most popular grapes for growing and consuming, Chardonnay can be made in a wide range of styles depending on where it is grown and how it is made. These styles can vary from a sparkling Blanc de Blanc, or fresh fermented in stainless steel, to rich and creamy white wine aged in oak barrels. While Chardonnay can flourish in many environments, in its homeland of Burgundy, it can produce some of the most remarkable and longest-lived examples. Whereas from California it can produce both oaky, buttery styles as well as leaner, European-inspired wines. \u003cstrong\u003eA Somm secret:\u003c\/strong\u003e the Burgundy subregion of Chablis, while typically using older oak barrels, produces a bright style similar to the unoaked style with high levels of acidity.
