DESCRIPTION
Ruinart, based in Reims, is the oldest established Champagne house, making only Champagne since Nicolas Ruinart founded it in 1729. Its wines age in the house's crayères, Gallo-Roman chalk pits about 38 meters underground that stay at a steady 52°F and are a listed historic monument. Ruinart is part of LVMH.
The Blanc de Blancs is the house's flagship. It is 100% Chardonnay, the grape Ruinart calls its soul, harvested mainly from the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims. Non-vintage Ruinart ages three to four years in the chalk cellars before release. It pours pale yellow with golden and green glints and a steady stream of fine bubbles. The nose is intense, with citrus and exotic fruit such as pineapple, then linden blossom and white peach as it opens. The palate is supple, round and creamy, balanced by freshness, with a mineral finish. Rich, yet fresh.
Serve well chilled, around 45 to 48°F, in a tulip or white wine glass. It is lovely as an aperitif and very good with scallop carpaccio, sea bream tartare, shrimp or oysters. It comes in a gift box, ready to give.
Bottle size: 750ml
