Chardonnay is, par excellence, the grape of the whites of Burgundy. It has become the best-known white grape in the world, perhaps because its floral notes and hints of yellow-fleshed fruit make it suitable for aging in oak barrels as well. If aged in steel, a fresh, delicate, fruity wine with a high alcohol content is obtained. It is used in blends for the production of the best sparkling wines in the world. Chardonnay white wines express a great range of aromas, flavors and colors, basically due to the diversity of places where they are grown and produced, and for the different production techniques to which they are subjected.
