Chardonnay: The World's Favorite White, In All Its Styles

Chardonnay is arguably the world's most recognized white grape, cherished for its incredible adaptability and the diverse range of delicious wines it produces. From crisp and refreshing to rich and complex, Chardonnay offers a style for nearly every palate. Explore our curated selection to find quality expressions of this versatile grape, always at an affordable price.

Two Sides of Chardonnay: Style Matters
The character of Chardonnay is significantly shaped by how it's made, particularly the use of oak:

  Crisp & Unoaked Chardonnay: Typically fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, this style emphasizes pure fruit flavors like green apple, lemon, and pear, often with bright acidity and sometimes a refreshing mineral edge. Think clean, vibrant, and food-friendly.
  Rich & Oaked Chardonnay: Often fermented or aged in oak barrels, this style develops complex notes of vanilla, baking spices, and sometimes buttery or tropical fruit undertones (like pineapple or mango). These wines tend to be fuller-bodied with a creamier texture.


Food Pairing Finesse
Chardonnay's versatility extends to food pairing. Match the wine style to your dish:

  Unoaked styles pair well with: Oysters, sushi, shellfish, grilled white fish, simple chicken dishes, salads with vinaigrette, goat cheese.
  Oaked styles complement: Roast chicken or pork, creamy pasta sauces (like Alfredo), grilled salmon, lobster, mushroom dishes, corn chowder.


Discover Your Preferred Chardonnay
Whether you prefer the bright zest of an unoaked Chardonnay or the rich complexity of an oaked version, our collection offers carefully chosen examples. Browse our selection to find the perfect Chardonnay for your taste, occasion, and budget, delivered conveniently to you.
