  • Chardonnay the Versatile Grape Chardonnay History
    Chardonnay The Versatile Grape Chardonnay History • Originating in the Burgundy region, has been grown in France for at least 1,200 years. • Chardonnay is believed to have been named after a village of the same name in the French Mâconnais area in southern Burgundy. It comes from the Latin cardonaccum, meaning “place full of thistles.” • Chardonnay is a genetic cross between Pinot Noir and Gouais Blanc, an obscure grape variety believed to have originated in Croatia, and transported to France by the Romans. • Chardonnay is probably made into more different styles of wine than any other grape. A White Wine That Breaks the Rules of White Wine Most White Wine… Chardonnay… • Contains residual sugar for a hint • Usually fermented bone dry. of sweetness. • Sometimes put through malolactic • Malolactic fermentation is avoided fermentation to reduce acidity and to bring out fruit flavor and enhance buttery qualities. freshness. • Often aged in oak barrels. • Aged in stainless steel tanks. Fun Facts & Trivia • Chardonnay is believed to be the second biggest white grape grown world-wide, when measured by acreage. In first place is ‘Airén’, a fairly obscure white grape grown extensively in central Spain. Airen is grown without irrigation in a very dry region, so vines are spaced far apart, and yields are very low. If measured by tonnage or bottles produced, Chardonnay would be the leader by far. • Chardonnay has been grown in Italy for a long time (although often confused with Pinot Blanc). In 2000, it was Italy’s 4th most widely planted white grape variety! • Gouais Blanc, one of the parents of Chardonnay, is sometimes referred to as the “Casanova” of grape varieties.

  • Saumur-Champigny Rouge | © ALLIANCE LOIRE | Design Vin.Co PEWHJE
    Saumur-Champigny Rouge AOP Saumur-Champigny, Vallée de la Loire et Centre, France Refined blended wines signed by our cellar masters, expressing their personalities, sensitivities and creativities. THE WINE "Originally from Burgundy, I was born in 1971 in Auxerre. My passion for wine was born at the age of 16, while travelling the Chablis wine route. A few years later, with a degree in oenology from the University of Dijon in my pocket, I went abroad (Oregon, South Africa, Argentina, Chile) for two years to discover the diversity of grape varieties and wine-making techniques. Back in France, I settled in the Anjou-Saumur region, which attracted me for its viticultural potential, and I will never leave it. Today, I work at the Cave de Saumur, since 2002, and I seek to create fruity and delicate wines, attractive to all, but which will reveal, through their complexity, a multitude of sensations on the nose and in the mouth. " Eric LAURENT, cellar master at the Cave de Saumur IN THE VINEYARD Heating of the harvest on a small part of the grapes bringing aromatic intensity and sweetness. VINIFICATION Harvesting of grapes selected for their fresh fruit and ripe fruit aromatic profiles. Separate vinification adapted to each profile to exacerbate the organoleptic qualities of the grapes: cold pre-fermentation maceration and limited extraction for the fresh fruit profile bringing aromatic intensity. Subtle blending of the vintages highlighting a beautiful aromatic complexity. AGEING Long maceration and ageing with micro-oxygenation on the ripe fruit profile bringing sustained colour, fatness, melted tannins and toasted notes.

  • Diverse International Pairings for Every Chablis Wines
    Press release – Chablis Diverse International Pairings for Every Chablis Wine Just one grape from one region produces a spectacular range of wines, from Petit Chablis to Chablis Grand Cru, perfect for pairing with seasonal international dishes Ask any sommelier to list the most food-friendly wines, and he or she will invariably name Chablis. An expression of pure Chardonnay centered on the village of the same name, in northern Bourgogne, Chablis’ bright acidity, minerality, and balance all make these wines excellent matches for food. But even though Chablis is made from one grape in one region, its four appellations – Petit Chablis, Chablis, Chablis Premier Cru, and Chablis Grand Cru – create a wide range of wines, from fresh and easy-drinking to rich and complex. Use this array to take a palate journey around the world, pairing international dishes with Chablis wines and hitting the right note every time. A precise combination of factors comes together in Chablis to create some of the world’s most distinctive white wines. Nestled about 2 hours southeast of Paris, Chablis is located at the northern limit of still wine balance, the cool climate combining with the region’s characteristic clay-limestone soils to create the precise balance of acidity, minerality, and full flavor that these wines are known for. Within Chablis’ 13,400 acres, vineyards are classified into four appellations according to location, soil, and slope. In this special region, slight nuances make a remarkable difference in style, from the cooler vineyards of Petit Chablis AOC located mainly around the perimeter of the region and also above the Chablis Grand Cru hills, to the unparalleled exposure and rich, fossil-filled Kimmeridgian soils in the sloped vineyards on the hill above the Serein River known as Chablis Grand Cru AOC.

  • Modelling Chablis Vintage Quality in Response to Inter- Annual Variation in Weather
    Received: 11 May 2021 y Accepted: 12 July 2021 y Published: 31 August 2021 DOI:10.20870/oeno-one.2021.55.3.4709 Modelling Chablis vintage quality in response to inter- annual variation in weather Alex J. Biss1,* and Richard H. Ellis1 1 School of Agriculture, Policy and Development, University of Reading, Whiteknights, PO Box 237, Reading, RG6 6EU, United Kingdom *corresponding author: [email protected] Associate editor: Benjamin Bois ABSTRACT The weather during grape production affects wine quality. Changes in the weather in the Chablis region of France and in the quality of Chablis wines (vintage scores) from 1963 to 2018 were analysed. Chablis wine quality improved over this period, with no Poor vintages after 1991. Summer temperature and sunshine duration both increased progressively between 1963 to 2018 with fewer frost days but no linear change detected in precipitation. Chablis vintage score was modelled as a function of mean temperature from April to September (curvilinear relation, maximum score at 16–17 °C), mean minimum temperature in September (an index of cool nights; negative relation), and total rainfall from June to September (negative relation). This simple three-factor model distinguished between Poor and higher- quality Chablis vintages well, but less so between Good and Excellent vintages. Application of the model to different climate change scenarios (assuming current viticultural and oenological practices) suggests that vintage scores will decline (slightly to substantially, dependent upon emissions scenario) by the 2041 to 2070 period. This reduction in quality would, however, be minimised if the warming of cool nights is less than currently forecast.

    Aldiploma Module Seven New World Wines & Upcoming Classics Module 7 New World Wines & Upcoming Classics New World Classics and Up & Coming Classics The previous six modules of the Aldiploma provided all the groundwork you need to make shopping for your wines easier and more enjoyable than ever. We covered off the basics of different wine types and styles, grape varieties, white and red winemaking, classic wines and also other types of wine. Now that you know what is in your glass and why you like it, we’re going to explore New World wines. We’re also going to take a little look at some up-and-coming wine regions – those less well-known areas that are producing some outstanding wines at incredible value, if you just step off the beaten track… New World Wines The classic winegrowing regions of Europe and the Middle East are often referred to as the ‘Old world’. Essentially anything grown outside of this area is referred to in the wine world as the ‘New world’. New World wines include (but are not limited to) wines from the USA, as well as a lot of countries in the Southern Hemisphere, including Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Argentina and Chile. When they first appeared on the international wine scene, these wines were a breath of fresh air. Firstly, the often sunny, warm climates meant the wines were soft, round, approachable and easy-to-drink but secondly, the labels were easier to understand. These new winemakers chose to label their wines by variety, meaning the grape variety is stated quite clearly on the label whereas for the majority of classic ‘Old World’ wines, they are labelled by region.
