  3. Chardonnay
    Where it comes from: International superstar. The world's most famous white wine grape hails from the Burgundy region in France, where it makes some of the planet's most complex, full flavoured and expensive white wines. The secret to Chardonnay's success is its versatility. Grown just about everywhere, it adapts well to different climates and winemaking techniques to produce wines in a whole range of styles. Budding historians will be interested to know that recent evidence shows that Chardonnay arose from an ancient cross between the Pinot Noir and Gouais Blanc varieties. Flavour profile: From cooler regions it has a delicate texture, with flavours of lemons, green apples and sometimes even grapefruit. In warmer regions, it gives rich flavours of tropical fruit, pineapples and peaches. When the wines are oaked these characters may be combined with buttery, toasty and nutty elements. Where to find it: Although it's everywhere, it is worth bearing in mind that Chardonnay mania is a fairly recent phenomenon. For example, in Australia and California, where it is now so successful, it barely existed before the 1980s. It also does well in New Zealand, Chile, northeastern Italy, Austria and South Africa. Outside Burgundy, Chardonnay is one of the three key grapes used to make Champagne, and it is also increasingly common in the Languedoc.

23 November 2009

This day in history:
At sixteen minutes past five on 23rd November 1963, a British television institution was born. Doctor Who would go on to become the longest-running science-fiction programme in the world, eventually spawning twenty six seasons of adventures from 1963 to 1989. In total, eight actors have played the part of Gallifrey's most famous Time Lord. From the very first - William Hartnell in 1963 - to the very last - Paul McGann, in the 1996 TV Movie - the Doctor has wandered through time and space in his trusty time machine, an old type-40 TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space). Although appearing to be nothing more than a battered blue police box, it is in fact vastly bigger on the inside than on the outside, and always departs with its familiar wheezing, groaning sound. read more
