| | Vino! / Wine Tasting / Chablis... For the Record |
 | | The Chablis region is famous for its dry white wines from the Chardonnay grape. | | | So, we have learned that Chablis doesn't come from California in jugs, it's not a grape, it's a region, and it's a wonderfully versatile wine with foods such as salads, chicken, fish, and cheese. | | | Chablis will challenge the palate of even the most discriminating of winos, and it is one of the only wines to truly display its origin: France, the true source of Chablis. |

| | The traditional Sunday snack in Chablis are gougÎres (giant cheese choux puffs) washed down with a glass of wine. | | | In Chablis, this piquant little sauce, based on white wine with shallot, vinegar and juniper, is traditional with cooked ham. | | | Plain Chablis is similar, with more body." She goes on to talk of Chablis Premier Cru, and of the Grand Crus -- world class wines which come from tiny patches of vines, and each with characteristics distinguishable by the experts. |

| | The Un-Chard Chardonnay: Chablis |
| | Chablis is definitely a food wine and not made for sipping alone or serving as an aperitif. | | | I say "true," because, outside of France, the name "Chablis" has been rather shabbily applied to a whole range of either vapid or overly fruity white jug wines that have been made from almost any combination of grapes. | | | The final question is, "Is Chablis worth the Price?" After all, there's so much good wine out there these day that's more readily available and affordable that you have to wonder if it's worth paying the premium or spending the time hunting down a good bottle or two. |

| | New York Daily News - City Life - Oeno-file: Chablis brings a lot to the table |
| | Chablis wines are somewhat full-bodied, but they are lean from their crisp acidity, and their flavors (besides the mineral note, they suggest green apple, sometimes lemon) are only medium-intense. | | | Chablis wine comes from an area of eastern France that's named after the quaint town of Chablis. | | | Technically, this district is part of the Burgundy region, although it's almost 40 miles from Burgundy's main white wine vineyards. |

| | Ice wine - Discuss Cooking |
| | The "juice" that is fermented from the grapes is "different" by its sugar content, which is why "Chablis" is pretty "dry" and "Ice Wine" is VERY sweet... | | | When the Chablis grapes are harvested, the grapes are literally "bulging" with moisture (ie "juice"), but are relatively low in "sugars" on a volume basis...and so the wine gets to taste relatively "dry"... | | | The Germans created "Ice Wine" (Eizwein") by watching their grapes being frozen by "bad" weather", and picking the "ruined" frozen grapes, and crushing same to try to "salvage the crop"... |
