Champagne Ruinart Rose
A non-vintage rosé champagne from Maison Ruinart, crafted in Champagne from Pinot Noir (55%) and Chardonnay (45%). The cuvée brings together grapes from the Montagne de Reims, the Marne Valley, and the Côte des Blancs, with a portion of the Pinot Noir vinified as red wine. It assembles 30 to 40 crus, completed by 20% to 30% reserve wines, and then rests for 2 to 3 years in the cellar. Its dosage is 8 g/l. The house describes a fresh palate with a fine structure and delicate roundness, lingering with a finish of pink grapefruit and peppermint.

Histoire du domaine
In 1728, the royal authorisation to transport Champagne in bottles created a favourable climate for the development of the sparkling wine trade. Nicolas Ruinart, a cloth merchant and nephew of the Benedictine monk Dom Thierry Ruinart, recorded the founding document of the house in his account book on 1 September 1729, in Reims. He initially marketed the sparkling wine to his textile clientele, before Ruinart Père et Fils abandoned the cloth trade in 1736 to devote itself to champagne. Claude Ruinart, the founder’s son, subsequently expanded the house’s markets into Belgium, Germany, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. In 1764, he shipped sixty bottles of rosé champagne, then known as ‘œil de perdrix’. The family took the name Ruinart de Brimont following their ennoblement in 1817 and continued to expand the house’s business throughout the 19th century. Ruinart acquired the crayères in Reims in 1877 and stored its bottles there; the above-ground buildings, damaged during the First World War, were rebuilt by Charlotte Ruinart following the death of André Ruinart in 1919. After the Second World War, Gérard Ruinart and then Bertrand Mure played a part in reviving the business; the latter launched the Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 1959 in 1966. The house was acquired by LVMH in 1988. Caroline Fiot, who trained within Ruinart’s winemaking team from 2016 onwards, succeeded Frédéric Panaïotis and took up her full duties as cellar master on 1 January 2026.
