I’ve been a loyal customer for several orders now. The roundness and liveliness are perfectly balanced. The delivery was spot on, as usual. Thank you for this wonderful discovery.

Aromatic profile
The structure of this champagne
Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
An Extra Brut dosage of 4 g/L and pure Grand Cru Chardonnay deliver crystalline vivacity.
Roundness
The 2010 vintage, generous and sun-drenched, lends an ample fullness carried by notes of ripe fruit.
Power
A rich, taut palate of remarkable aromatic intensity, born of nine years' ageing on lees under cork.
Length
A persistent, supremely elegant finish underpinned by fresh spices, black tea and chalky minerality.
TASTING NOTES
Pale gold in colour with brilliantly luminous golden highlights. The nose opens on floral notes of iris and mineral hints of damp chalk, before revealing on aeration toasty nuances of hazelnut, roasted almond and coffee, intertwined with ripe citrus zest. The palate is rich and taut, with remarkable intensity where fig leaf, black tea and fresh spices meld into a firm structure leading to a finish of exceptional persistence and elegance.

4g/LDosage
100%Chardonnay
Terroirs
An exclusive blend of Chardonnay Grands Crus drawn 90% from the Côte des Blancs (Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, Chouilly, Cramant) and 10% from the Montagne de Reims (Sillery). The 2010 vintage, harvested under ideal summer conditions, yielded plump, crisp grapes that faithfully express the diversity of Champagne's chalky terroirs.
About this house
Founded in 1729, Ruinart is the oldest Champagne House, established in Reims within chalk cellars listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A pioneer of Blanc de Blancs in Champagne, Grand Cru Chardonnay is the absolute signature of every one of its cuvées.
Dom Ruinart, the House's prestige cuvée, embodies the most accomplished expression of this heritage: vinified and aged under cork — a centuries-old technique revived by Chef de Cave Frédéric Panaïotis — and disgorged by hand, it reveals a complexity and elegance that only nine years on lees can bestow.
Food pairing
The perfect pairing
Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif
The iodine character and chalky minerality of Dom Ruinart 2010 magnify the briny freshness of an open-sea oyster.
Starter
The richness and tension of the champagne marry elegantly with the delicate brininess and firm texture of lobster.
Main course
Sole meunière with beurre noisette resonates perfectly with the toasty notes and persistent minerality of the vintage.
