Origins of Chardonnay vines and their evolution over time<\/h2>

Chardonnay is easily recognized by its typical aroma and unrivalled elegance<\/strong>. A native of Burgundy<\/strong>, Chardonnay has seduced gourmets the world over. The name Chardonnay comes from the Latin “Cardonnacum”, meaning a small village where thistles grow<\/strong>. <\/p>

According to recent university research published in the United States, Chardonnay is a cross between Pinot Gris or Blanc and Gouais<\/strong>, one of the oldest grape varieties brought from Croatia by the Romans. Chardonnay has been grown in France since the early 20th century. <\/p>
