Chardonnay's sire Constantin is a 1983 Welsh B stallion from Holland and is one of the most accomplished and influential stallions in German pony breeding.  He is a dark chestnut stallion standing 134 cm.   For many years, Constantin has been ranked one of the top ten pony stallions in the FN breeding value statistics.  His sire, Whatton Copper Beech was an influential sire as well. Whatton Copper Beech's classic Welsh pony bloodlines include the greats Solway Master Bronze, Downland Chevailer and  Coed Coch Berwynfa.  Both of Whatton Copper Beech's parents came from the same maternal stock, and have the same maternal great-grandmother, the exceptional Springbourne Ladybird.

Constantin's offspring include multiple approved sons, registered broodmares, state premium mares and competition ponies. Constantin offspring are competing in dressage and in show jumping sport with great success.  Constantin son Konrad became federal dressage champion at the age of four, federal vice-champion at the age of six, and then in 1997 and 1999, he was both individual and team European champion. This was followed by his becoming European team vice-champion in 2000 and 2001 and European vice-champion as well as European team champion in dressage in 2002. Cash and Go, another successful Constantin offspring, was federal champion six-year old dressage pony in 1996, European vice-champion and European team champion in the years 1999 and 2000.  In 2002 and 2003 Chardonnay was Weser-Ems state champion and Federal Vice-Champion in dressage.  In show jumping, the two silver medalists of the 2000 Federal Championship, Captain Buff (five-year old show jumping ponies) and Cognac 62 (six-year old show jumping ponies) are Constantin offspring.
    

Chardonnay's dam-sire Livio is out of the thoroughbred mare Regentin xx, whose sire Ballboy xx was a proven sire in warm blood breeding. Chardonnay's dam Wienerin is also the dam of the sports pony Wiebke (by Diamant II), who started successfully in dressage horse tests prior to her breeding career, and of Chardonnay's full-brother Calimero, who won the bronze medal at the federal championship of four-year old dressage ponies in 1998 and who managed to qualify once more for the finals in the dressage and show jumping disciplines in 2000. Wienerin's grand-sire, the Trakehner stallion Ordensglanz is the sire of the Trakehner champion stallion of 1994, Glanzlicht, as well as of Argument, who in turn is responsible for the top dressage horse Antony FRH/I. Werth. Chardonnay's dam line leads into the Trakehner mare family of the mare Wally. This family produced inter alia, the stallions Waldgeist (by Kassio), Wie Ibikus (by Ibikus) and Waldzauber (by Pindar xx).
