    Maison Ruinart

    On September 1st 1729, in Reims, at the heart of the Champagne region, Nicolas Ruinart drafted the founding charter of Maison Ruinart, creating the world's first ever champagne-producing company. This gave rise to an enterprise that continues to flourish and to prosper nearly three hundred years later. The intuition of his uncle, the monk who had first shown him the way, had thus inspired an initiative that was to make history.

    Tasting notes

    NOSE
    Delicate and Inviting

    Fresh white fruits take center stage, with aromas of pear and Bosc apple leading the way. A touch of apricot and fresh almonds adds complexity. Subtle hints of elderflower and coriander seed provide a touch of floral and spicy intrigue.

    PALATE
    Balanced, Harmonious, Rounded

    Balanced and harmonious, the R de Ruinart Brut NV offers a delightful interplay of flavours on the palate. Sweet notes of golden fruit, reminiscent of plum tarts and ripe drupes, dominate the initial sip. The texture is enveloping and round, showcasing the wine's richness. As the flavours develop, a refreshing touch of greengage and nectarine emerges, adding a layer of acidity that keeps the palate engaged.

    FINISH
    Long, Expressive, Fresh

    The finish is long and expressive. The well-integrated dosage ensures the characteristic freshness of the Chardonnay remains prominent. Hints of ripe fruit linger on the palate, interwoven with a touch of minerality for a clean and invigorating aftertaste.
