With a unique aromatic richness, Ruinart Blanc de Blancs champagne has a surprisingly intense and fresh first nose. Notes of lemon and citron beautifully combine with aromas of pineapple and passion fruit underlined by fresh spices like ginger and cardamom. The secondary aromas reveal a subtle, floral nose with notes of white jasmine and lime-tree along with ripe white peach.These are enhanced by slightly pepper y notes of pink peppercorn, which give a fresh spicy sweetness.
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is intensely aromatic and offers a round and unexpectedly sensual palate with flavours ranging from juicy ripe peach and pear to exotic pineapple. The soft, light, almost powdery character of the peach expresses the nature of the wine. Thanks to its sweet and tonic flavours, the pineapple enhances the champagne bubbles and leaves you with a smile. The feeling in the mouth reveal a superb and highly refreshing finale, based on notes of citrus fruit with a surprisingly pleasant and light touch of bitterness (citron, white grapefruit).
The whole is pure, neat and precise, and offers to the palate the pleasure of an harmonious wine with an extremely thirst- quenching aromatic freshness.

Winery & Vintage Info
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne expresses the essence of the Chardonnay grape; with its elegant, fresh touch. Chardonnay, the noble white grape of the Champagne region, is like a golden thread running through the Ruinart collection; it produces luminous and intense wines with a unique lightness.
The delicate Chardonnay reveals its aromatic complexity over time, demanding attention to detail and expertise. The Cellar Master, Frédéric Panaïotis, excels in unveiling a very particular facet that makes the wine style: aromatic freshness. The Ruinart Chardonnays are selected from the best vineyards and embody the purity sought after by Ruinart lovers.
As the emblem of the House, Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is the perfect expression of the Ruinart taste. Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is comprised of 100% Chardonnay grapes grown primarily with Premiers Crus from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims terroirs, both prized for their aromatic finesse. Grapes sourced from the Sézannais hillsides are chosen for their roundness and those from Saint-Thierry massif for lightness and freshness. Ruinar t seeks Chardonnays with a floral bouquet which will develop notes of ripe yellow fruit. It is this selection of vineyards which results in the freshness and unexpected roundness in the mouth that makes Ruinart Blanc de Blancs unique.
Every harvest is carefully handpicked. As the emblem of the House, Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is the perfect expression of savoir-faire, all the more complex as every year it requires the re-creation of a unique imprint from only one grape; Chardonnay. Finally, the unique transparency of the bottle, and its Ruinart characteristic curvaceous shape, heightens the brilliance of a pale golden yellow robe with light green reflections.
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is created from about 20 different “crus” from different years in order to provide more roundness to the natural lightness of Chardonnay wines. The presence of young “vins de réserve” from the two or three previous harvests guarantees the desired freshness. The blend of these Chardonnays brings to Ruinart Blanc de Blancs a light persistence in mouth.
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs has between 8 and 9 grams of sugar per litre to preserve its pure and delicate taste. It reveals its lightness through the effervescence of fine bubbles displayed in delicate and persistent columns. The sight of this graceful ballet must not cause you to forget that Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is a spontaneous wine that should be appreciated immediately. Winery Notes
