Årgang 2009 vintage champagne: Dom Ruinart Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs fra Reims.
“A perfect summer in Champagne resulting in fleshy and lively wines”
2009 in Champagne has been described as a “golden” year. Above all, it was marked by a summery harvest, perfect for ripening grapes.
Dom Ruinart vintage 2009 reveals an intense golden colour enhanced with hints of almond green. On the nose: Sun-kissed aromas of both fleshy and crisp fruit much like a sun-ripened lemon from Italy or juicy and mouth-watering apricot or a perfectly ripe nectarine from the orchard. Floral yet fruity, with white floral notes and honeyed accents. The bouquet evolves towards candied fruits, almond paste and orange blossom, combined with a fresh, chalky character. On the palate: Rich and elegant; delicate acidity meets the freshness of stone fruit to create wonderful sapidity on the palate. Beautifully balanced, Dom Ruinart 2009 is a flavourful and vivacious wine with a long and subtle finish. Its delicate effervescence only enhances its refined texture.
100 % Chardonnay exclusively from Grands Crus: 82 % Côte des Blancs (Cramant, Avize, Chouilly & Le Mesnil-sur-Oger), 18 % from the northern side of the Montagne de Reims (Sillery).
MAISON RUINART 1729
VERDENS FØRSTE CHAMPAGNE HUS
Ruinart champagne er ikke som alle de andre. Det var nemlig det allerførste champagne hus der blev etableret helt tilbage i 1729 hvor man blev inspireret af en munk, der kunne se langt ud i fremtiden.
