Description
Ruinart’s 2016 Champagne reflects the house’s signature style: refined, expressive, and beautifully polished. As one of Champagne’s oldest houses, founded in 1729, Ruinart brings centuries of savoir-faire to a vintage that speaks with elegance and precision.
Tasting Notes
The wine typically shows a luminous straw-gold color with a fine, persistent mousse. On the nose, expect delicate aromas of fresh citrus, white flowers, orchard fruit, and subtle brioche or toasted notes that add depth and complexity.
On the palate, it is usually crisp and vibrant, with lively acidity, a creamy texture, and a mineral backbone that keeps the finish focused and long. Vintage Champagne from a great house like Ruinart can age gracefully for several years, gaining richer pastry, honeyed, and nutty nuances over time.
Production
Sourced from Champagne’s chalk-rich terroirs, the wine benefits from the region’s cool climate and mineral soils, which help preserve freshness and finesse. Ruinart is known for careful parcel selection and meticulous vinification, with fermentation and aging designed to highlight purity, structure, and aromatic precision.
Food & Serving
This Champagne pairs beautifully with oysters, scallops, sushi, caviar, roast chicken, or fine salted snacks. Serve well chilled at 8–10°C, and decanting is not recommended; instead, open shortly before serving to preserve its delicate mousse and freshness.
Producer
Ruinart is the oldest established Champagne house, founded in Reims in 1729 and renowned for its commitment to elegance and Chardonnay-driven style. The house has long been associated with prestige and craftsmanship, and it remains one of the most respected names in Champagne, admired for both heritage and consistency.
