Description

Ruinart Champagne Blanc de Blancs

Chardonnay is the very soul of Ruinart and the grape is at the heart of all their cuvées.

The Ruinart Champagne Blanc de Blancs is very intense on the nose at first, with fresh fruit notes, particularly ripe citrus fruits. It is followed by refined floral nose with notes of white flowers and fruits (peaches, pineapples. It has a supple, harmonious attack on the palate, creating a very rounded mouthfeel. The vinosity is not excessive and is supported by excellent freshness. Beautiful pale golden yellow with gentle green reflections. A vibrant and luminous colour with active effervescence with a persistent release of bubbles.

The blend of 100% Chardonnay from various years (20 – 25% of which are reserve wines from the 2 previous years). A large majority of Premiers Crus from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims vineyards for aromatic refinement, supplemented by Sézannais wines known to provide maturity. Finally, several wines from the north of the Vesle valley give a light, fresh touch.
