Blanc de Noir

The French term "Blanc de Noir" literally means "white from black". This term is used for white (sparkling) wines that have been pressed from red wine varieties. In general, all those grape varieties may be used for a Blanc de Noir that bear the designation "Noir" in the list of grape varieties. For sparkling wines, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier are used above all. The peculiarity of Blanc de Noir wines lies in their production: since the colorants are located in the skins of the grapes, the juice of red wine grapes is also light in color and is separated from the grape skins (unlike in red wines) - healthy, i.e. uninjured, grapes are therefore the most important prerequisite for a Blanc de Noir.

Spirits as an aperitif

The color of the wine is mostly golden yellow, which can sometimes have a rosy tinge (unlike a Blanc de Blancs, which is usually very light). Therefore, some rosé wines also bear the name "Blanc de Noir" when they have only a delicate pink color. Pale wines made from red grapes are low in acidity, fresh and their fruit aromas range from apple and pear to raspberry or strawberry. The food pairings are as complex as the character: A Blanc de Noir is the ideal companion to fish or salad, even light meat dishes can be served with this wine.
