More on Chablis

Chablis is a cool-climate wine region in northern Burgundy known almost entirely for Chardonnay. Its wines are typically crisp, high in acidity, and driven more by citrus, green apple, chalk, and mineral character than by rich oak or tropical fruit. The region’s Kimmeridgian limestone soils and cool conditions help create the lean, precise style that makes Chablis so distinctive. At its best, Chablis shows how Chardonnay can be elegant, restrained, and deeply expressive of place.
