Ruinart brut [750ml]Ruinart Brut (also called “R de Ruinart”) is the signature non-vintage cuvée from Maison Ruinart, the oldest established Champagne house (founded in 1729) located in Reims, France. The blend is dominated by roughly 40% Chardonnay, with the rest made up of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier, along with reserve wines from previous vintages to ensure consistency. Vinification follows the traditional Méthode Champenoise; after secondary fermentation in bottle (the champagne method), the wine is aged for about three years in cellar before disgorgement. The style is harmonious, showing both freshness and ripe fruit, creamy texture, and a brightness indicative of high-quality grapes and careful blending. ABV is about 12-12.5%.
Tasting Notes:
- Appearance: Pale straw yellow with golden reflections; fine, persistent bubbles that build a delicate mousse.
- Aroma: Fresh orchard fruits (pear, apple), apricot; toasted brioche, almond and hazelnut; floral hints and subtle citrus peel.
- Palate: Smooth and creamy entry; fruit-driven (stone fruit, citrus), balanced by crisp acidity; biscuity-brioche notes with soft mineral undertones; elegant texture.
- Finish: Long and refined; fruit lingers, accompanied by brioche, mild oak spice and a mineral sparkle that refreshes at the end.
- ABV: ~ 12%
Serving Suggestions:
Serve chilled (approx. 8-10 °C) in a tulip flute or white wine glass to showcase the aromas and bubbles. Excellent as an apéritif, or paired with seafood (oysters, shellfish, poached fish), white meats, or mild cheeses. Also pairs well with creamy or buttery dishes, or light pastries.
