Chardonnay is a French grape used for dry white premium table (dinner) wines worldwide. Chardonnay is also grown and bottled in California.. Port is a fortified, sweet, desert wine.. Port is not Chardonnay. Port and sherry have sugar added during fermentation, therefore having both higher alcohol content and higher sugar contant than, for example Charonnay or Bordeaux. Ports and dry wines each have their rarities, and devotees. Correction, sugar is not added to Port during production, it gets it's sweetness from the grapes. Port is made by adding grape spirit to wine during fermentation, this raises the alcohol level and kills the yeast, because the wine has not been fully fermented there is alot of residual sugar and so the end product is sweet.

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!
