Yes, the color of wine comes from leaving the wine skins in with the wine after crush. Removing the skins right away will give you a white wine. Blanc de Noirs Champagne is made from 100% Pinot Noir.

What is a Pinot Noir?
Pinot NoirPinot noir is made from the Pinot Noir grape, which is a red wine grape. Noir is the French word for black. Pinot noir grapes appear to be neither black nor red but are rather purplish, and it is their skin that gives the wine its colour. A white or blush wine can be made from Pinot Noir grapes by removing the grape skins from the juice to produce what is called a 'blanc de noirs' (a white wine from red wine grapes). The larger the grape used the whiter the wine, due to the increased juice to skin ratio.However, nearly all the wines made from the Pinot Noir grape are red wines.Pinot Noir is a red wine, like all red grapes in can be used to make white wine, this is however really only done in Champagne with pinot noir and pinot meunier. If the bottle is labelled Pinot Noir it is going to be red, unless some maverick producer is making white, but this wouldn;t be of great quality and should be avoided!

There are some varieties of grapes, for example Concord grapes in the US, that have purple juice. There are also some indigenous varieties in eastern Europe that have purple juice, but this is not the case for the grapes used in Champagne, in this case the red-skinned grapes pinot noir and pinot meunier, and the white-skinned grape chardonnay.
