The Versatility and Characteristics of Chardonnay

Chardonnay is a versatile wine that lends itself easily to a vast range of flavor profiles and styles. The warmth of the climate and terroir combined with the winemaker's decisions on whether or not to use malolactic fermentation and oak can make this wine smokey, buttery, subtle, bold, crisp, tropical, or many other flavors. In this sense, it's an excellent wine to explore and find something that suits your taste or what you're serving for dinner. Chardonnay is grown worldwide, and you will find that warmer climates impart significantly different flavors than cooler ones.

The History of Chardonnay Wines

The Romans brought back a little-known grape from the French countryside named Gouais blanc. This grape naturally crossed with Pinot noir to make Chardonnay. This crossing had hybrid vigor, and while it was first grown in Burgundy, it was soon discovered that it could grow in a very wide range of conditions. Partly due to this adaptability, Chardonnay is widely grown across the globe.

Chardonnay is now the most commonly planted white wine grape and is one of the only grape options allowed in Champagne. It has become prevalent in California and other warm climates, and several distinct styles of Chardonnay have developed out of different regions over the history of this wine. In its most recent history, the un-oaked style of Chardonnay has become famous for its crisp freshness and approachability.

Flavor Profile

Chardonnay is typically a dry, moderately acidic wine with no tannins and a medium body. Apples, pears, and melons are classic fruit tastes in many Chardonnays. While Chardonnay grown in a warmer climate may taste of pineapple, mango, or papaya. Treatment with oak can give Chardonnay some surprising notes, such as pie crust, caramelized sugar, vanilla, and dill. Malolactic fermentation results in a buttery taste and feel. Also, it is common for winemakers to experiment with the acidity in Chardonnay and to explore chalky or mineral tastes.

You can often distinguish Chardonnay from Sauvignon Blanc by the fruit taste. Chardonnay may taste of any number of autumnal (like melon) or tropical fruits, while Sauvignon Blanc tends to taste of herbs or grapefruit.

Food Pairings for Chardonnay

The most classic pairing for Chardonnay is roast chicken or turkey. However, as Chardonnay varies so much, it is important to consider the particular characteristics of the wine you are pairing with to make the best decision.

Chardonnay with high acid content often does well with fish, especially smoked or tomato-based dishes. Chardonnay that has been oak-aged is often paired with mushrooms, aged cheese, corn, squash, or pumpkin.

Aging Recommendations

Chardonnay can be aged among the longest white wines, up to 10 years for some vintages. However, it is crucial to select your bottle carefully. The higher the acid content in the wine, the better it will take to aging. Choosing a Chardonnay is a matter of personal style. Distinguish your tastes by selecting a kosher Chardonnay today.
