Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs Champagne 2010

Winemaker Notes:

This cuve bears the hallmark of Ruinarts signature fresh, aromatic chardonnay. Time allows her to take on even greater depth, fullness and complexity.

-Frdric Panaotis, Maison Ruinart Cellar Master.

Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 2010 is made exclusively from Grand Cru chardonnays, 90% of which are grown on the Cte des Blancs (Le Mesnil-sur-Oger, Avize, Chouilly and Cramant) and 10% on the Montagne de Reims (Sillery). This iconic grape variety reflects the rich diversity of terroirs in the Champagne region and is present in all Maison Ruinarts cuves.

Critical Acclaim:

95 Points Wine Spectator

A mineral-driven Champagne, creamy and compact, this deftly meshes a layer of smoke, chalk and saline with detailed flavors of glazed apple and apricot, roasted hazelnut and ginger-infused pastry cream carried on a raw silky mousse. The fine texture softens the firm spine of chiseled acidity that structures the wine, and hints of white blossoms, Meyer lemon and oyster shell play on the finish.
