Difference between Chardoney and Dry White

[wondersofwine]

I tracked down the misinformation. It was from an older book "A Wine Tour of France" by Frederick S. Wildman, Jr. The pb edition I have is from 1976. It refers to Pinot Chardonnay and Pinot Blanc. However, I am indebted to that book. I was living in Germany in the late 70's and took an art history tour to Burgundy (the Hospice de Beaune, a museum in Dijon, etc.). I used the book to help me select two bottles of Beaune wines in a wine shop and that was the start of my interest in red Burgundies. Before that I was more into German whites, red Bordeaux and Zinfandels. I still drink red Bordeaux but my preference in red wines is now more the Burgundies.
Thanks again for setting the record straight. I won't make the mistake in referring to the Chardonnay grape again.
