Symbol of luminous elegance, the Ruinart Blanc de Blancs in Magnum Seconde Peau celebrates the purity of Chardonnay with the ease of a great classic. In this 1,5 L bottle, Maison Ruinart conducts a composition of rare clarity, where freshness blends into a silky texture and the effervescence dances with precision. Designed for moments that matter, this champagne targets aesthetes seeking a precise, airy style, hosts aiming for a French-style reception, and lovers who favour balance and grace. The meticulous selection of 25 to 30 crus, notably from the Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims, Sézannais and Vitryas, composes a nuanced aromatic picture, faithful to the Ruinart signature. In magnum, the wine breathes more slowly, gains in harmony and magnifies conviviality, offering about 12 glasses with delicately rimmed bubbles. All of this is dressed in a Seconde Peau case with a mineral touch, as aesthetic as it is responsible, designed to enhance the moment without ostentation. Freshness, precision, style, that is the promise.

Assemblage et vinification

This Blanc de Blancs is made exclusively from Chardonnay carefully selected from 25 to 30 crus, where the chalky verticality of great terroirs intertwines with the softness of precisely managed ripeness. The harvest is carried out by hand to preserve the integrity of each berry and the sought-after aromatic finesse. Alcoholic fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks, ensuring perfect control of temperatures and the preservation of the most delicate aromas, from white blossom to fruit pulp. Malolactic fermentation is performed to refine the frame, soften the acidic freshness and promote a enveloping texture, without ever altering the wine's energy. The dosage, measured at 7,5 g/l, ensures a clear expression of the grape, where roundness remains in the background to highlight minerality and length. Patient ageing in the cellar, sheltered from light and fluctuations, completes the harmony. In magnum, slower oxygenation favours a finer bubble and an aromatic profile of exemplary poise at the table, while offering a generous margin of expression throughout service.

Notes de dégustation

• Robe : Pale yellow with green highlights, clear and bright, animated by a regular and delicate effervescence that traces a persistent lace on the glass.
• Nez : Opening with floral notes, jasmine and linden, then fresh almond and a hint of mint, before the emergence of crunchy white fruits. Subtle notes of brioche establish a gourmand complexity without weight.
• Bouche : Lively and precise attack, followed by a caressing texture. The tension of fresh citrus meets accents of delicate exotic fruit, the finish extends on chalk and an elegant salinity. Sovereign balance between freshness and roundness.

Température de service et conseils

Serve this Ruinart Blanc de Blancs at around 12°C in tulip glasses to enhance the finesse of the mousse and the complexity of the bouquet.

Ready to drink, it expresses itself with ease today, revealing the Ruinart signature in a reading that is both immediate and refined.
