Definiția și Sensul lui "Chablis"

What is "Chablis"?

Chablis is a type of white wine made from Chardonnay grapes grown in the Chablis region of Burgundy, France. Unlike other Chardonnay wines, Chablis is known for its crisp and mineral-driven taste and aroma, owing to the unique terroir of the region, which is characterized by a cool climate and limestone-rich soil. Chablis wines typically have a pale straw color and a bright acidity, with flavors of green apple, lemon, and a distinctive flinty note. Chablis wines can be classified into four categories, from the most basic Chablis to the more complex Grand Cru Chablis, which is made from grapes grown in a small number of designated vineyards. Chablis pairs well with a range of foods, including seafood, poultry, and salads, and is often enjoyed young, although some examples can age for several years.
