Ruinart
Ruinart is a wine estate in Champagne. It is the northernmost great wine region of France; the second fermentation in bottle arose here as an answer to the cold winters that halted the first.
The oldest champagne house in existence
Steeped in history and exuding an aura of legacy, Ruinart stands tall in the heart of the Champagne region, in the picturesque city of Reims. With its establishment in 1729 by the visionary Nicolas Ruinart, it proudly holds the title of being one of the oldest champagne houses in the world. Over the centuries, Ruinart has been a witness to countless milestones, events, and eras, while its rich past has added layers of complexity, depth, and authenticity to its brand. A testament to its heritage, the deep-rooted traditions of Ruinart merge seamlessly with modern winemaking techniques. The house has successfully preserved the original vision of Nicolas Ruinart while embracing the nuances of contemporary champagne production. This ability to bridge the ancient with the new has fortified its reputation and standing in the world of fine wines.

Delving into Ruinart’s exquisite portfolio of champagnes, one can’t help but be enamored by the quality and diversity it offers. The house’s dedication to perfection is evident in its varied range, from the ethereal Blanc de Blancs to the robust Blanc de Noirs and the alluring Rosé.

Sustainability and environmental responsibility
Ruinart is known for its elegant and refined style, with a focus on freshness and purity of fruit. The house uses only the first press of grapes for its champagnes, which are then aged in the chalk cellars beneath the city of Reims for several years before release. Ruinart also places a strong emphasis on sustainability and environmental responsibility, with a commitment to reducing its carbon footprint and preserving the natural resources of the Champagne region.
