Ruinart : Blanc de Blancs

A champagne with floral and exotic fruit aromas

The estate

Ruinart, the first Champagne House founded in 1729, is located in the heart of Reims. Elegance, style and timelessness are part of the Ruinart Champagne House's very DNA. Regarded as one of the most valued brands in France, Ruinart embodies the excellence of the French ‘’way of life’’ in all four corners of the world.

The vineyard

Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is made predominantly from Champagne Premiers Crus stemming from the Cote des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims. Their aromatic finesse is combined with the roundness of the Sezannais crus and the freshness of the Vesle valley.

The vinification and aging

Following the manual harvest, the grapes undergo a first fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. At the end of this process, malolactic fermentation is carried out.

The blend

Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is made exclusively from different vintages of Chardonnay.
