Chablis is a northern Burgundy region known for dry white wines made from Chardonnay. Its cool climate and varied vineyard sites produce wines that are typically fresh, citrus-fruited and savoury, with four appellation levels ranging from Petit Chablis to Grand Cru.
Pouilly-Fumé is a dry Centre-Loire Sauvignon Blanc known for citrus, fresh acidity, floral notes and stony or smoky impressions. “Fumé” does not mean smoked, and flint does not directly flavour the wine; these descriptions reflect the combined influence of site, vintage, farming and winemaking.
Riesling is an aromatic white grape best known for its high acidity and flavours of lime, green apple, peach and flowers. It is most famous in Germany but also thrives in Australia and France. Riesling can produce wines ranging from bone dry to intensely sweet while remaining fresh and vibrant.
