Where it comes from
Chardonnay
Chardonnay is a white grape from Burgundy that has spread to nearly every wine-growing region on earth, prized for its versatility and its ability to reflect both terroir and the winemaker's hand.
Johanniter
Johanniter is a white grape and a modern disease-resistant (PIWI) hybrid bred in Germany, developed from Riesling and other varieties to combine quality with resilience in the vineyard.
Viognier
Viognier is a white grape from the northern Rhône Valley in France, long the signature of the tiny appellation Condrieu and a variety that came close to disappearing before a revival spread it far beyond its Rhône home.
