No, Chardonnay and Viognier are not the same grape; they are distinct varietals with different characteristics. Chardonnay is known for its versatility and can produce a range of styles from crisp and mineral to rich and buttery, often featuring apple, citrus, and tropical fruit flavors. Viognier, on the other hand, is typically aromatic with floral notes and flavors of peach, apricot, and spice, making it a more fragrant and full-bodied wine. Each grape has its unique profile and is used to create different types of wines.
White - chardonnay, viognier, sauvignon blanc Red - cabernet sauvignon, pinot noir, merlot
The meaning of the word viognier is a white wine grape. The viognier is the only grape that is used in the French wine Condrieu that is made in the Rhone Valley.
The Chardonnay grape is the main grape of the Chablis region. Chablis wine can only be made using the Chardonnay grape.

Different White Wines Offer Different pH Levels Lower Acidity The white wine grape called viognier produces wines that can have very low acidity (a higher pH #). I've seen a California viognier with a pH of 4.1 Medium Acidity A chardonnay grown Napa Valley that has been aged in oak (adding a buttery and smooth character) often ranges from 3.4-3.6 Medium Plus Acidity A chardonnay from Chablis in France ranges from about 3.0-3.2 High Acidity A riesling from Germany (known for having very high acidity) can have a pH as low as 2.8
It should be 80% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Gris. Same as in a vintage Mumm Napa blanc de blanc.
Chardonnay wine is named after the Chardonnay grape, which is believed to have originated in the Burgundy region of France. The name itself is thought to derive from the village of Chardonnay, located in the Mâconnais region. Historically, the grape has been cultivated in this area for centuries, and its name has since become synonymous with the wine produced from it, gaining worldwide recognition.
Chardonnay is not a region in France. There is a village in Burgundy named Chardonnay. It could be the place which gave its name to the grape variety "chardonnay", a variety of white grapes very popular in winegrowing in and outside France.
Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier and Chardonnay
$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)
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 is a white wine, but not all white wine is chardonnay.
