Aromatic profile

The structure of this champagne

Four dimensions to capture its balance
Freshness
The predominantly Chardonnay selection delivers a lemony, chalky vivacity — the immutable signature of the house since 1729.
Roundness
Full malolactic fermentation and reserve wines (20–30 %) lend each cuvée a generous, creamy balance.
Body
The Ruinart style favours airy elegance over opulence; the structure remains fine and precise, never heavy.
Finish
The chalky minerality of the Reims crayères ensures a delicate, linear aromatic persistence.

TASTING NOTES

The hues range from the pale, luminous gold-white of the Blanc de Blancs to the golden salmon reflections of the Rosé, revealing the full breadth of Ruinart's palette. On the nose, the house signature expresses itself through notes of white fruits, fresh citrus, acacia blossom and the characteristic chalk of the Reims subsoil. On the palate, a fine, persistent mousse carries flavours of white peach, delicate brioche and soft red fruits, always underpinned by an elegant mineral freshness and a measured dosage of 7 g/L.

Terroirs

Ruinart sources from forty to fifty crus, drawn principally from the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims — two complementary terroirs that shape the house's identity. The chalky subsoil beneath Reims, exploited within the celebrated crayères listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site, imparts to every cuvée a distinctive minerality that is the true sensory hallmark of Ruinart.

Ruinart

About this house

Founded in 1729 by Nicolas Ruinart on the advice of his uncle Dom Thierry Ruinart, a close friend of Dom Pérignon, Ruinart is the oldest Champagne house still in operation. For nearly three centuries, it has remained faithful to its signature: the primacy of Chardonnay, a grape of light and finesse that best expresses the chalky richness of the Champenois terroir.

Its crayères, carved 38 metres deep into the Gallo-Roman limestone beneath Reims and listed by UNESCO, provide ideal conditions for maturation. Today part of the LVMH group, the house continues its exceptional savoir-faire under the stewardship of cellar master Frédéric Panaïotis.

Food pairing

The perfect pairing

Between the champagne and its dish
Aperitif

Aperitif

R de Ruinart Brut pairs effortlessly with golden gougères, whose soft, cheesy crumb resonates with the creamy roundness and silky mousse of the champagne.

Starter

Starter

The 100% Chardonnay Blanc de Blancs reveals its full minerality alongside a citrus and fresh herb gravlax of salmon, the cépage's bright acidity enhancing the delicacy of the fish.

Main course

Main course

The Ruinart Rosé, structured by Montagne de Reims Pinot Noir, pairs magnificently with lobster, whose sweet, briny flesh echoes the cuvée's notes of strawberry and raspberry.
