Visually, its radiance is crystalline with a shimmering yellow colour and golden hues. The nose is delicate and fruity displaying dominant aromas of fresh white pear and dry fruits such as hazelnuts and almonds, followed by white flower notes, Viennese pastry and buttered brioche.

Serve
Serve with refined, light starters such as poached oysters and seared scallops, or with a main dish such as sole meunière. Also excellent with cheeses with a short ripening time, such as Chaource or creamy Langres.
Process
40% Chardonnay, 57% Pinot Noir and 3% Pinot Meunier; with reserve wine from the two previous vintages. Grapes are hand-picked, and fermentation takes place in temperature-regulated stainless steel cuves. Full malolactic with a final dosage is 9 g/l.
People
The longest-established champagne house, Ruinart was founded in Rheims in 1729, and has a rich and complex history.
Place
Harvested primarily from the terroirs of the Cote des Blancs and the Montagne de Rheims, whose soils contain a high chalk content.
Winemaking
The blend is made up of 40% Chardonnay, 57% Pinot Noir and 3% Pinot Meunier, 20 to 25% of which are wines reserved from the 2 previous years. The grapes are obviously hand picked and the fermentation takes place in temperature-regulated stainless steel fermenters. The wine goes through full malolactic conversion and the final dosage is 9 g/l.
