Roland Lavantureux 2002 Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- Best Buy
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Made by a vigneron, which means a guy named Lavantureux actually grew the grapes and made the wine himself. It also means, at least in theory, that it received a lot of TLC. Not cheap, but an excellent value among French Chardonnay. It offers nothing but the purest of fruit: pineapple, mango, apple and then a smooth slide toward a sleek finish. Seek the vintage if…

Jean-Marc Brocard 2002 Domaine Sainte Claire Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $13
Smoky and minerally on the nose--like when you strike two pieces of flint together. But there are also ripe fruit flavors of honey and pink grapefruit and a richness of texture that's usually lacking in Petit Chablis. Such a vivid expression of minerality is hard to find at this price.

Domaine Vincent Dauvissat 2005 Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $28
For a Petit Chablis, this is serious and complex, with delicious ripe green and yellow fruits; there is a touch of caramel with toast just at the edge.

La Chablisienne 2009 Pas si Petit Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $17
Petit Chablis is such an unfortunate appellation name, hence La Chablisiennne’s play on words with Pas si Petit (not so small). The wine is light, flavored with pear, and lemon streaked with acidity.

La Chablisienne 2006 Pas si Petit Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $17
The name “Not so little” is a joking reference to its appellation. This is a pleasure, a delicious unoaked Chardonnay with green fruits, a touch of caramel and kiwi fruit flavors.

Simonnet-Febvre 2006 Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $19
Fresh, light, creamy Chardonnay, just a touch of vanilla with crisp, clean green fruits. There is an attractive touch of spice to round the wine off.

Domaine Pommier 2006 Chardonnay (Petit Chablis)
- $33
For a Petit-Chablis, this has plenty of firm, tight structure. While the fruit is light, it is based on a texture of sweet caramel and plums, freshened with acidity. The finish is rich and soft.
