Ruinart Blanc De Blancs

AROMATIC FRESHNESS, IN ITS ELEGANT SIMPLICITY.

This luminous expression of chardonnay transforms twenty five to thirty carefully-selected crus into an enveloping experience of pure citrus fruit, floral notes and round freshness, silky and pleasant to drink. The emblem of Ruinart taste.

Grape Varieties: 100% Chardonnay. Chardonnay is the very soul of Ruinart. The grape, harvested mainly from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims terroirs, is at the heart of all our cuvées.

Tasting Note: The pale yellow colour of this wine reflects almond green and jade hues. From the first nose, intense aromas of fresh fruits are noted: ripe cedar, juicy pear or freshly harvested peach. More floral and elegant, the second nose reveals scents of magnolia, accompanied by a spicy note of ginger and pink peppercorn. Do you notice the singular and harmonious texture that envelops the palate, between tension and roundness ? This is underlined by a lively aromatic freshness of ripe citrus and exotic fruits. The final mineral touch is long and delicate.

Vinification: Manual harvest. Alcoholic fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. Complete malolactic fermentation. Blend of 25 to 30 crus. 20 to 30% reserve wine. 2 to 3 years of ageing on lees.
