Description
Ruinart Brut Champagne is the fruit of the intuition of the Benedictine monk Thierry Ruinart, a great friend of Dom Pérignon. This important theologian passed on his love of vines and wine to his nephew Nicolas Ruinart, who founded the
Ruinart Winery in 1729.
Ruinart Champagne has been awarded the AOC designation, the French equivalent of DOC. An important and renowned
champagne, a prestigious aperitif and the ideal accompaniment to refined fish menus. The
vines used to produce this
brut are mainly located in the
Montagne de Reims and the
Côte des Blancs, two particularly prestigious areas of France for the cultivation of champagne grapes. The secrets of the
Ruinart winemaking technique are very similar to those used by Dom Pérignon, precisely because of the excellent relationship between the founders of the two important wineries.
Ruinart Brut Champagne is produced using grapes from three highly prized
vineyards: 57%
Pinot Noir, 40%
Chardonnay, and 3%
Pinot Meunier. A 20-25%
reserve wine from previous vintages is added to this blend, intensifying the aromatic notes of the young grapes and making the cuvée more balanced. This particular and precise combination of different
grape varieties, enriched with a small amount of slightly aged
Ruinart, gives this
brut an unmistakable and unique biscuity aftertaste. The extremely high quality of the grapes used to produce this
champagne is guaranteed by the
natural cultivation method, which is free of chemical pesticides. The result is a bouquet of aromas reminiscent of sun-ripened fruit and wildflowers.
