About the Wine
Since its foundation in 1729, the first established House of Champagne has taken pride in the excellence of its cuvees. The Ruinart taste bears the signature of Chardonnay, the thread that runs through all its blends and produces pure and intense wines of remarkable aromatic freshness.
Drawn from 25–30 Premier Cru vineyards across the Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims, and Sézannais, the wine reflects the chalk-rich soils that lend Champagne its unmistakable minerality. After fermentation in stainless steel and two to three years of lees aging, the Blanc de Blancs emerges with luminous golden hues and an elegant bead of fine bubbles.
Critics routinely praise it, calling it “one of the most consistently exquisite non-vintage Blanc de Blancs Champagnes” . Whether poured as an aperitif or paired with oysters, sushi, or delicate cheeses, it remains a timeless emblem of luxury and precision in every glass.
This is an outstanding 'house' style of blanc de blancs that takes top honors for value and quality. This wine always wows and comforts with elegance.
Tasting Notes
100% Chardonnay.
Beautiful pale yellow color with glints of gold and green, a vibrant, luminous robe. Active effervescence with a fine, persistent release of bubbles. At first very intense on the nose, giving way to fresh fruit notes, particularly ripe citrus and exotic fruits (pineapple).
A highly refined floral second nose with notes of linden and white fruits (white peach). A supple, harmonious attack on the palate, firm but rounded. A voluptuous texture and vinosity that is not excessive, supported by excellent freshness. A very refreshing mineral finish.
Critical Reviews
Ruinart is a specialist in Blanc de Blancs Champagne. This wine is finely balanced between maturity and taut, fresh, mineral-driven fruit. From the Côte des Blancs, the wine is poised and ready to drink. ~ 94 Wine Enthusiast
Very fresh and clean with lemon-pith, fresh sourdough, and white-apricot aromas. Hint of almond, too. Refreshing and creamy on the palate, with fine bubbles and a bright, sleek finish. Brimming with pear, white peach, and citrus fruit, this enchanting Blanc de Blancs is so bright and succulent that and is very hard to resist. I love the very long, silky and clean finish, which has a beautiful balance. Really fine mousse. ~ 93 James Suckling
A toasty blanc de blanc with an aromatic overtone of smoke and lemon peel notes accenting flavors of poached apricot, brioche, passion fruit coulis, and fresh thyme. Fine and creamy in texture, with a racy finish. ~ 93 Wine Spectator
Light yellow-gold. Smoky citrus and orchard fruits on the deeply perfumed, mineral-tinged nose. Offers broad, toasty orange and pear skin flavors with an undercurrent of dusty minerals. Picks up floral and ginger nuances with air, along with hints of iodine and tarragon. Rich yet lively blanc de blancs with powerful back-end lift and finishing grip. ~ 92 Vinous
