What kind of grape makes a blanc de blanc wine

You may already know, but blanc de blanc, or white from white, is generally used for champagnes or sparkling wines to indicate that the wine is 100% chardonnay. Champagnes, and sparkling wines, are made from blend Pinot Noir (red), Chardonnay (white), and Pinot Meunier(red). More unnecessary info (I'm a wine geek, stop me before I hurt myself), the other common term is blanc de noir or white from red (black). This tends to be light pink in color and made with 100% Pinot Noir. Hope this helps. Good Luck
