Why you’ll love it?

Ruinart is known for 2 things: being the oldest Champagne House and being a Chardonnay specialist. Their blanc de blancs is  a blend of 100% chardonnay from various years (20 to 25% of which are wines reserved from the 2 previous years). 

A large majority of Premiers Crus from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims vineyards for aromatic refinement, supplemented by Sézannais wines known to provide maturity. Finally, several wines from the north of the Vesle valley give a light, fresh touch. Full malolactic fermentation produces a Champagne that's broad and rich.
