Discover Ruinart Champagnes

Ruinart, founded in 1729, holds a unique place in history as the very first Champagne House. This prestigious maison is inseparable from the Chardonnay grape, the golden thread that runs through all its cuvées. Located in Reims, Ruinart oversees monumental chalk cellars listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, where its wines age slowly at a constant temperature in absolute silence.

Terroir and Characteristics

The Ruinart vineyards are mainly planted on chalky soils which impart finesse and freshness to the grapes. Careful terroir work and meticulous vinification highlight the subtle aromas and purity of Chardonnay. Ruinart champagnes are known for their bright aromatic freshness, crystalline purity, and a delicate roundness defining their unique style.

Wine Profile

The signature cuvée, R de Ruinart, offers a perfect balance between power and elegance, while Ruinart Blanc de Blancs, presented in its iconic bottle, is a worldwide reference for its finesse, citrus notes, and white flowers. For special occasions, the Dom Ruinart, a prestigious vintage cuvée, pushes the complexity and elegance of Chardonnay to the extreme in a refined style.

Food Pairings

Ruinart champagnes pair beautifully with delicate dishes such as roasted lobster, sautéed scallops, aged Comté cheese, and lightly sauced poultry. Their aromatic balance and freshness subtly enhance the flavors of refined cuisine.

Your questions, our answers.

Is the Ruinart style suitable if you are looking for freshness without giving up roundness?

The house’s presentation combines aromatic freshness, purity, and delicate roundness. These characteristics may guide wine lovers looking for a fresh Champagne without focusing solely on vibrancy.

Which Ruinart Champagnes in this selection are explicitly vintage-dated?

Only Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs 2010 Dom Ruinart has a stated vintage. The other two references, Champagne Ruinart Brut and Champagne Brut, do not mention a year in the information provided.

Can Ruinart Champagne be served with Comté cheese or poultry?

Aged Comté and poultry in a light sauce are among the suggested pairings for Ruinart Champagnes. These suggestions relate to the house style and are not attributed to a specific cuvée.

What role do the Crayères of Reims play in the aging of Ruinart Champagnes?

The house’s Champagnes age there slowly at a constant temperature. However, the information provided does not specify the aging period for each of the three references.

Do the two references titled “Champagne Ruinart Brut” and “Champagne Brut” make it possible to compare two distinct profiles?

Their names alone do not establish a difference in blend or flavor profile. Nor does any detailed product information provided make it possible to formally identify either of them as the R de Ruinart described in the presentation.
