Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 2002: mature vintage Champagne

A blanc de blancs from the house of Reims

Blanc de blancs means the wine is made only from white grapes: here 100% Chardonnay. The cuvée is named after Dom Thierry Ruinart, the Benedictine monk whose nephew Nicolas founded the house. Ruinart is based in Reims, where its chalk cellars hold the wines during their long ageing before release. Part of our Champagne selection, it carries the AOC Champagne designation and is a brut, a dry style.

Serving

Serve at 10–12 °C rather than ice-cold, in a white-wine glass instead of a narrow flute. A mature blanc de blancs of this level suits seafood, poultry with cream sauces and aged Comté, or simply an aperitif without food.
