This dry white is a library release from one of the most well-regarded producers in the Languedoc. Since they plant an array of grape varieties--indigenous and otherwise--the estate's wines can only be listed as Vin de Pays. However, this sophisticated white wine speaks for itself, with captivating fruit and an elegant texture that says much about terroir.

During a huge popularity surge beginning in the late 1980s, Chardonnay plantings have increased dramatically -- not only in California's wine country, with which the variety is nearly synonymous, but also in Burgundy (its original, Old World home) and just about everywhere else in the winemaking world. It is a flexible, eager-to-please grape, responding well to just about anything a winemaker...

Chenin Blanc

A versatile grape that is grown worldwide, but is most commonly associated with the Loire, California, Australia, South Africa, and New Zealand.
