Champagne R de RUINART is the hallmark cuvée from Maison RUINART. It is sourced from 40% chardonnay, 40% to 45% of Pinot Noir and 10% to 15% Pinot Meunier, and still includes 25% to 30% of reserve wine from the 2 previous years in order to offer a greater complexity.
This cuvée is characterized by its golden color and great effervescence. The nose is fresh, fruity and first unveils pear, apple and apricot notes, followed by more floral hints. The palate is round, fleshy, and offers an energetic starts, with ripe fruits aromas. The finish is long, giving way to the freshness of Chardonnay, which is the spirit of Maison Ruinart…
Champagne R de Ruinart is perfect for the aperitif, or in accompaniment of oysters, scallops or even cheese such as Chaource.
In a word : THE world’s reference among Brut champagnes !

It is the very first Champagne House, founded in 1729 by the monk Dom Thierry Ruinart. Over time, Ruinart has become a reference for champagne and the French art of living all over the world.
The unique shape of its bottle is a tribute to the historical bottles of the 18th century. The House has the deepest and most majestic chalk pits in Reims, listed as a Unesco World Heritage Site since 2015, and has one of the most beautiful cellars in the world, eight kilometers long, listed as a Historic Monument since 1931.
In its constant quest for quality, excellence and authenticity, the House has chosen Chardonnay, a rare and fragile grape variety, which is the signature and soul of its champagnes. Discover here the finesse, purity, aromatic freshness, roundness, and elegance for which Ruinart is renowned.
