Chablis                                    

When you hear Chablis, what do you think of?   Most often we know Chablis as an inexpensive jug wine, but that's not the real Chablis.   Real Chablis is from, well, Chablis.   And the one thing to remember is that those jug wines aren't real Chablis.

Chablis is a town in the Burgundy region of France and real Chablis is 100 percent Chardonnay that's usually more delicate than Chardonnays you're used to.   The weather in Chablis is nearly the coolest Chardonnay can take so the wine tends to be leaner and the fruitiness more subtle

The chalky soil gives them a flinty quality.   That and the zing of acidity means Chablis marries well with soft, rich cheeses and flavorful seafoods.

Here's another difference... with a few exceptions, most real Chablis don't have much oak flavor. So they show the Chardonnay fruit more directly.

Real Chablis will definitely give you a different-from-everyday Chardonnay experience.
