Wine Grapes 101: CHARDONNAY

Chardonnay is probably the greatest and most-known white grape variety. This grape variety is so versatile, that it is responsible for a wide range of wine styles - starting from acidic and refreshing to full-bodied and opulent. Chardonnay is also a base grape variety for many popular sparkling wines, including Champagne.
