Product Detail

Since its foundation in 1729, excellence and know-how are at the heart of the first Champagne Maison. Chardonnay, the very soul of Ruinart, brings elegance, purity and aromatic freshness to all its Cuvées. The balance between its roots and the audacity of its commitments has turned it into an everlasting modern and contemporary Maison.

Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is a dynamic, sculpted wine that expresses the full purity of fine Chardonnay. The blend is 100% Chardonnay exclusively from Grand Cru vineyards: 75% from the Côte des Blancs and 25% from the northern slopes of Montagne de Reims.

The 2010 chardonnays were characterised by a high potential degree of alcohol and a good total acidity level: a balance allowing our oenological team to express all their know-how when blending these great chardonnays.

TASTING NOTES

Appearance: An intense golden yellow with light greenish hues and a fine and persistent effervescence.

Aroma: After an initial floral and mineral hit, spicy and toasted notes of nutmeg, roasted hazelnuts and almonds dominate, along with zesty aromas of ripe citrus fruit.

Taste: Rich in taste with aromatic intensity – fig leaf flavours mingle with notes of black tea and spices, leading to a complex mouthfeel and a fresh finish enhanced by an elegant bitterness.

FOOD PAIRINGS

Strong flavours and an intense freshness allow for plenty of food pairing possibilities – from rich meat dishes and fresh fish plates to hearty vegetarian recipes. Serve it alongside rare breed pork fillet with Jerusalem artichoke, lovage oil and toasted chestnut shavings; smoked lobster with daikon petals and a creamy sauce with wakame seaweed and lemon zest; and leek in different textures (charred, fried and mashed) with a potato and truffle sabayon.
