Chenin Blanc is a white wine grape variety from the Loire Valley in France. It is used to make sparkling (champagne style) wines, as well as dry, semi-sweet and sweet wines.
The most notable wine made from CB in the Loire is Vouvray. Unlike some whites it is especially suitable for aging.
The variety is used in South Africa and Australia. In these latter countries it was formerly used as a high volume, low value wine. Unfortunately Chenin blanc has a poor reputation because of these practices.
In Australia more wineries are now taking the variety seriously and quite a few very good wines are bening made. www.vinodiversity.com/chenin-blanc.html has more information and a list of Australian wineries using the variety.
That would be chardonnay. The variety of wine does have any geography constraints - it's about the grape. That said, people refer to French wines (and many wines outside of the United States) by their region, and many regions have strict guidelines of the types of grapes that are allowed to be made into wine. So there is red Burgundy and white Burgundy both come from Burgundy. Red Burgundy is Pinot Noir and white is Chardonnay.
Yes, Chardonnay is the main grape used in White Burgundy wines, in most it is the only grape used. A few white burgundies also contain a rare grape variety called Aligote, others may have a small amount of Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Melon de Bourgogne or perhaps Sacy. But most are just Chardonnay.

Pinot Grigio grapes are of a dark purple hue. So I suppose that's one answer.
Champagne!! Yes, believe it nor not it's true! It's made with Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier as well as Chardonnay. Pinot Grigio grapes are more of a pinkish than purple color.
Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Gris.

Chardonnay
Its a french white wine from the burgundy area of France and it is made from the chardonnay grape
Burgundy wine can refer to red wine, made from Pinot Noir grapes, or white wine, made from Chardonnay grapes, though there are other varieties of burgundy, made from various varieties of both red and white grape.
French Burgundy is pinot noir if it's red, chardonnay if it's white. The subsection of Burgundy called Beaujolais is made from the gamay grape. You will also, rarely, find the white grape called alicante bouchet.
Burgundy wine (French: Bourgogne) is wine made in the Burgundy AOC region of France. Most wine produced here is either red wine made from Pinot Noir grapes or white wine made from Chardonnay grapes, although red and white wines are also made from other grape varieties, such as Gamay and Aligoté respectively. Small amounts of rose and sparkling wine are also produced.
Chardonnay There can also be some Aligote in these wines.
The Chardonnay grape is the main grape of the Chablis region. Chablis wine can only be made using the Chardonnay grape.
Chardonnay grapes are used to produce mainly white wine, it's also used in blends for rose and champagne, the classic Chablis is produced from 100% chardonnay grapes in the Chablis region is the northernmost district of the Burgundy region of france.The color can vary depending on age and method of barrel maturation, Aussie chardonnays are often oak ages whereas Chablis is usual unoaked and matured in metal barrels.
It's a white wine, usually a chardonnay.------------------------Any wine bearing Chablis on the label will be a white wine made 100% from Chardonnay. Other grape varieties are made into wine in the general area of Chablis, however they are not permitted to use Chablis on the label (they have to use the generic Bourgogne AOC designation instead).
A lot of things. First of all, they are made in different places, meaning different climates. Second, Red Burgundy is made entirely from the Pinot Noir grape, while red Bordeaux is made from a blend of grapes, mainly Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. Regarding white Burgundy, it is made from Chardonnay, while white bordeaux is made from Sauvignon Blanc and Semillion, mainly.
Burgundy is a region in France that produces both red and white. Commonly when someone says "Burgundy" they are referring to the red wine made with Pinot Noir grapes. That would be a good red-wine substitute if you can't find Burgundy at your store; try to pick up a California or Oregon pinot noir instead. They also make white wine in the Burgundy region; primarily it is made with Chardonnay grapes. Thus, if you have to find a substitute for white Burgundy, then get some Chardonnay. A good rule of thumb to remember when cooking with wine: If you wouldn't want to drink it, then don't cook with it. Buy something decent, not something cheap.
Pinot Noir
$7 and a "LABEL" The correct answer to this questions is: Colombard Chardonnay is blend of Colombard and Chardonnay with Colombard being the dominant variety whereas Chardonnay is made form only Chardonnay (although 15% of other grape varieties may be used in its production if it is being sold in the EU and 25% for the USA)
