Description
A signature Ruinart champagne, complex and elegant
The estate
The first Champagne House founded in 1729, Ruinart is an undeniable reference. The historic Ruinart Champagne House owes its birth to the visionary and pioneering monk Dom Thierry Ruinart. Located in the heart of Reims, the Ruinart House guards a treasure. Unique, historical monuments and architectural feats, the Ruinart chalk pits have been classified as a historical site since 1931 and have been listed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since July 2015. Nearly 40 meters underground, in the darkness and coolness of the cathedral-like cellars, the precious bottles await their moment in the light. Elegance, style and timelessness define the DNA of the Ruinart Champagne House, one of the most appreciated brands in France, embodying the excellence of French art de vivre around the world.
The wine
Coming exclusively from prestigious Champagne terroirs, namely the Grands and Premiers Crus of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims, this "R" cuvée from Ruinart is the perfect vintage expression of the "Ruinart taste".
The vintage
The signature of the Ruinart House, this 2010 vintage champagne is the result of an exceptional harvest. The climatic conditions of the year 2010 allowed for very beautiful grapes displaying perfect maturity and good acidity, which prompted the decision to produce a vintage cuvée.
Blend
Chardonnay (55%)
Pinot Noir (45%)
Characteristics and tasting advice for the R de Ruinart 2010
Tasting
Color
Shining, the golden color is illuminated by green and brown reflections.
Nose
Complex and gourmet, the aromatic bouquet is discovered in several stages, first opening on fruity notes with scents of apple, pear and ripe summer fruits. The aeration then gives way to spicier notes, enhanced by the delicate freshness of floral fragrances.
Palate
On the palate, this champagne unfolds all its power and generosity in a full and harmonious mouth, shining with the brilliance of the fruit and tension. Full of elegance, the persistence of the finish ends on slight notes of bitterness.
To enhance this tasting even more significantly, discover this cuvée in magnum format!
