The Chablis region is the northernmost wine district of the Burgundy region in France. The grapevines around the town of Chablis are almost all Chardonnay, making a dry white wine renowned for the purity of its aroma and taste.

The northern location (48°N) means that Chablis wines have more acidity and less fruity flavours than Chardonnay wines grown in warmer climates, but their pure, minerally style has great elegance. They often have a "flinty" note, sometimes described as "goût de pierre à fusil" (gunflint) and sometimes as "steely".

In comparison to the white wines from the rest of Burgundy, Chablis has on average much less influence of oak. Much Chablis is completely unoaked, and vinified in steel tanks. The amount of barrel maturation, if any, is a stylistic choice which varies widely between Chablis producers. Many Grand Cru and some Premier Cru wines receive some maturation in oak barrels, but typically the time in barrel and the proportion of new barrels is much smaller than for white wines of Côte de Beaune.

Chardonnay is known locally as "Beaunois", "the vine from Beaune".
