About This Champagne
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is a non-vintage Brut made only from Chardonnay, the grape that defines the Reims house. It balances freshness with a rounded texture and suits most occasions.
The wine is drawn from some 25 to 30 Chardonnay crus across the Côte des Blancs, the Montagne de Reims, the Sézannais and the Vallée de la Vesle.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: Lemon and juicy pear first, then white blossom and a spicy thread of ginger.
- Palate: Fresh and rounded, ripe citrus and a little pineapple, with a fine persistent bead.
- Finish: Clean, gently saline and of good length.
Serving & Food
Chill to around 8°C and use a white-wine glass. Raw seafood is the natural match: hamachi sashimi, oysters with a squeeze of lime, or a ceviche.
Good to Know
