Wineries around Paris

My husband and I are going to be in Paris in late August. Are there any recommendations for wineries in the area? I'm willing to take a full day trip, or even an overnight if there are some nice places to stay within a couple hours of Paris.

What kind of wine? The Loire Valley is within a couple of hours, but most other major wine areas are a bit farther than that, though easily accessible.

There's the Champagne area. I think that Montmartre still has a vineyard, but I do not know if they make wine out of the grapes, and if so, where.

Yes, they make wine at the Montmartre vineyard, but it's Beaujolais Nouveau, and there's not that much of it.

There is a new high speed train that will take you to Reims, the Champagne region, in one hour.
