Chardonnay
White – A story of tradition
Its origins are not clear: some scholars claim it has Middle Eastern “roots”, according to others it comes from a spontaneous cross from a pre-domesticated vine and a vine from ancient Illyria. For a long time confused with Pinot Blanc, genetic research has shown that it is a spontaneous cross, perhaps in the Carolingian era, between Pinot Noir and Gouais blanc.
