    Today We’re going to be comparing the two most-popular type of white wines, the two types of still whites you’re most likely to find on the shelves of your local wine shop so next time you go there, you know which one you should pick, and why.
    We’re going to be talking about and comparing wines made from two different grapes, both of French origin: Chardonnay on one side, the most popular of all white wines, in the US and around the world, and Sauvignon Blanc on the other side.
    I’m going to be telling you what are the key characteristics of these two wines and how they differ, and then I’m going to go one step further, comparing two Chardonnays, one from France, from Chablis a very famous type of French Chardonnay from Burgundy, with a California Chardonnay, namely Rombauer. And I’ll be tasting a French Sauvignon blanc from the Loire valley of France, with a Sauvignon Blanc from a country that’s now become very popular for its Sauv Blanc wines: New Zealand.

    So wonderful to see your video! Not sure why they are not showing up. Love this discussion. When someone asks me what is my favorite wine, I answer wine. I totally get why you don’t want to rank. Your advice on Bordeaux was awesome…it was such a fun trip. Now I am thinking Burgundy. This was perfect. I have just moved to Sonoma County. So awesome to be in the heart of California wine country. Looking forward to more videos like this!

    Great video. I agree. The Sauvignon Blanc is a more narrow taste when matching it to food. I love it with ginger.

    In Australia and New Zealand, about 25 to 30 years ago there was cork shortage, most bottles that I’d open would break when I working as a waiter. With screw tops, there’s less chance of oxidation compared with corks. It’s not as romantic as a cork, but if you’ve got style, it can be!

    • @YouTubeJulien
      @YouTubeJulien  2 роки тому +1

      Hi there Aude/ Tx for your feedback. Sauvignon Blanc is grassy and citrusy, with crisper acidity generally speaking, while Chardonnay is rounder, smoother and with subtler flavor profile. Hope this helps :)

    I was originally a Reisling drinker. First time i tried a Chablis I did not like it In fact i STILL don't like the stuff, thinking it only fit for mixing with pinot for making champagne. Sauvignon blanch, i'm getting to like more and more Preferring the Loire . At the end of the day? Reisling is STILL my favourite.

      Glad to hear you're exploring the wine world John, to find you favorite styles. We all have different tastes, but there at least a wine that suits every one of us. Sauv blanc can be fascinating. Enjoy 😊🥂👍

  • @fredericperrin3279
    @fredericperrin3279 6 місяців тому

    For me, the biggest difference between these two is the variation within the varietal. Chardonnay varies from absolutely awful (e.g a cheap, over-oaked Californian) to the most unbelievable beverages you can think of (a top Chablis if you like it dry, or an aged Puligny-Montrachet), while Sauvignon Blanc is a very safe wine: always at least pleasant, and almost always at best very nice. The worst SB are far better than the worst Chardonnay, but the best SB are very far from the best Chardonnay.

      Hi Clyde, euh! They're the same species!? So of course you can compare them. If you're learning how to cook, you'd compare pork with beef obviously, not sure you you're saying!?
