Love that channel and love the information. Chardonnay is a hard variety to narrow down. Every region does it different and every winemaker adds their own twist.
for me chardonnay from chile grand reserva (toro di piedra) was totally new experience. expecially for the autumn i really look for warm, full white wines. The one as I call it with a sauna nose :)
I like chardonnays. I usually prefer hard liquor as my go-to drink. i find wine to be too sour or too sweet for my taste. But chardonnay is just right for my liking 😁
I made a cheap Solomon Grundy kit of it and you know what... it's pretty good! It has a slightly bitter kick to it, that vanishes quickly after drinking it. Started at 1.126 SG ended at 1.004 SG so it's 16.3% ABV. That's way stronger than it's meant to be but that's how I make it 🙂
Chardonnay have different characteristics as you mentioned but it's all depends on terroir. I like your presentation very informative. Can you please make a presentation about wine faults. Thanks
Yes. I am working my way through quite a few, but keen not to overload anyone (or myself) so I enjoy making one of these every couple of weeks. Thanks for the suggestion
On the note of clones, it's worth mentioning Wente in Livermore, California. Their Morning Fog Chardonnay is inexpensive, widely distributed, and it's a great bottle. However they're far more famous for their 1912 Wente clone, which was the original genetic material for 80% of modern Chardonnay plantings in the US. The most commonly used Chardonnay clone in California, FPS 04, was directly derived from their original clone. Very few existent vineyards have been quite so influential.
Morning Fog is a best seller in a wine bar where i work. It was an eye openeing experiance for me as a begginer. Of course taste changes with a time and tastings but it is definitely worth to try! Still looking for more of those "warm" and cozy white wines. As i mentioned before in a comment about a chille one.
Someday, not any day soon, mind you, but someday I'd like to try a $2k bottle of wine to be able to compare it to my everyday and weekend bottles. To be able to answer that illusive question: is it worth it??
I have tried a $200 bottle of Pinot Noir. Hate to admit it, but was so much better that the less expensive bottle from same winery. Would do it again but only for real special occasion.
I'm so glad that I found this channel. I have been using it to help study for not only m WSET classes but the rest of my Sommelier classes.
Awww thanks. That's great. Cheers
What a great, simple and compiled information you are sharing here! Thank you!
Thanks for this channel. It's really helping my crash course on wines
You're welcome
I’m studying for my WSET Level 2s and your videos are everything to me right now 🥂Thank you

YES. Completely agree. So hard to choose one to drink today as they are so different
You are phenomenal. I learn so much from you. Many thanks!!!
I appreciate that!
Informative introduction to subtle characteristics of wine. I tend to just drink and say mmmmmmm.
I had that chardonnay a few weeks ago. Very nice. Great bid as always.
I loved it. Really enjoyable

Nice one. Pretty strong 😂
Great overview

I felt like I was tasting that Chardonnay. Love your videos. How about sesssions on Vouvray and Viognier?
I have a video on Viognier if you want to check that one out.
I bought some Liberty Creek today. It's pretty good.
Enjoy!!!

You must be reading my mind. I have a Wine Faults video out this week. Cheers
@@TheGrapeExplorer Looking forward. Thanks
Any chance of a Verdejo video anytime soon? You do a great job of covering the varietals!

Once I heard an old man saying "White Wine?? Good stuff, Good stuff!!"

Hi everyone. Who is a big fan of Chardonnay. What do you recommend
What glasses are you using?
Nothing fancy. I picked these up at a local store. Made by a German company called Revolution
Someday, not any day soon, mind you, but someday I'd like to try a $2k bottle of wine to be able to compare it to my everyday and weekend bottles. To be able to answer that illusive question: is it worth it??
£2k is a lot for a bottle. There are going to have to be some very dramatic changes in my life for that to happen.
I have tried a $200 bottle of Pinot Noir. Hate to admit it, but was so much better that the less expensive bottle from same winery. Would do it again but only for real special occasion.
@@billpalmer6481 wow. The most I ever spent on wine was Bordeaux £90. This was three years ago and I still.have buyer remorse haha
@@billpalmer6481 Hmmm - I can see trying a bottle for a couple hundred, but not the 4-digit bottles. That'd be a 1x lifetime kinda bucket list.
@@montereymamacita Definitely not an everyday thing! But I would recommend at least once trying something like that. Very memorable
What is its percentage??
My name is chardonnay
Tumake tekhte amr mama r moto lage johny sing 😆
👍🙏🥂
Cheers.
