The Story

Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is an ellipse. Within its taut, rounded edges, rests a hint of mousse that exudes a rich freshness. This ellipse is a result of the robustness of the combined harmony of vintage and varietal, a partnership which has been perfected throughout the year. After patiently waiting for a decade, at last it delivers an impression of salinity on its finish, redolent of sea foam, carried by a light ocean breeze. It is reminiscent also of the espumas of modern chefs, lattices of bubbles that have come to finish the most elegant dishes. This intense beauty is a true blanc de blancs, crafted from great crus. It offers a hint of oceanic minerality ad a pinch of salt from the vineyard soils.

97 Points - James Suckling

Wonderful savory and toasty complexity. Aromas of toasted bread, mussel shells, chamomile, honey and dried citrus. It’s medium-bodied, silky and seamless, with a sharp backbone of acidity tying everything together. Reductive and intense.

95 Points - Wine Spectator

A graceful Champagne, with a featherweight feel on the palate and precision detailing to the fine mousse. Yet this delicate touch belies the tightly meshed flavors of poached peach, lemon curd, roasted hazelnut and canelé pastry, plus accents of ground ginger, smoke and acacia blossoms, that reveal themselves as they expand through the lasting finish. Disgorged February 2023. Drink now through 2038.
