The House & Terroir
Ruinart, founded in Reims in 1729, is the world's oldest established Champagne house. The house's identity is inextricably linked to the Chardonnay grape, which is responsible for the freshness, elegance, and aromatic potential of its wines. The grapes are sourced primarily from the prestigious terroirs of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims. Ruinart's deep, historic chalk cellars (Crayères) provide perfect, constant conditions for the long maturation of the champagnes, contributing significantly to their unique character.
Wine Lines in Our Collection
In our selection, you will find the quintessence of Ruinart. The R de Ruinart is the classic calling card of the house, a harmonious blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Meunier. It captivates with its freshness and versatility. The Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is the house's icon, embodying the Ruinart style in its purest form. It is made from 100% Chardonnay grapes and is known for its luminous color and intense citrus aromas. The Ruinart Rosé completes the trio. It is a fruity and full-bodied cuvée where the freshness of Chardonnay elegantly harmonizes with the fruitiness of Pinot Noir.
Food Pairing
Ruinart champagnes are exceptionally versatile food companions. The Blanc de Blancs is a perfect aperitif and pairs beautifully with delicate seafood such as oysters, scallops, or a light fish carpaccio. The R de Ruinart is also a wonderful aperitif but also harmonizes perfectly with light appetizers. The Rosé unfolds its full potential when paired with salmon, sushi, thinly sliced prosciutto, or even desserts with red fruits. Every sip promises a festive experience.
Price Range
Ruinart's champagnes belong to the luxury segment, reflecting the exceptional quality and historical heritage of the house. You can find these prestigious cuvées in our shop starting from around €70.
