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!

Champagne grapes are usually small black grapes without seeds. There exist both red and white varieties of the Corinth, but they are much less common.

What can you substitute for burgundy wine?
Burgundy is a region in France that produces both red and white. Commonly when someone says "Burgundy" they are referring to the red wine made with Pinot Noir grapes. That would be a good red-wine substitute if you can't find Burgundy at your store; try to pick up a California or Oregon pinot noir instead. They also make white wine in the Burgundy region; primarily it is made with Chardonnay grapes. Thus, if you have to find a substitute for white Burgundy, then get some Chardonnay. A good rule of thumb to remember when cooking with wine: If you wouldn't want to drink it, then don't cook with it. Buy something decent, not something cheap.
