The Chablis region is the northernmost wine district of the Burgundy region in France. The appellation is 100% Chardonnay, and produces a dry white wine renowned for the purity of its aroma and taste. Common notes include citrus, white flowers and white fruit, with a pronounced mineral character. The appellation has a great diversity of designated place names, including seven grand crus and forty premiers crus, whose wines have significant aging potential. In comparison to the white wines from the rest of Burgundy, Chablis has on average much less influence of oak. Much Chablis is completely unoaked, and vinified in steel tanks. The wines are a great match for oysters and shellfish, as well as light poultry dishes.
