Tasting note
Subtle, approachable pink Champagne, tasting of tropical fruits, small red berries and roses and saved from over-indulgence by a bracing breath of mint and pink grapefruit.
Viticulture
Blend constructed of a base of Chardonnay & Pinot Noirr. Mostly 1ers Crus, 20-25% from reserves. 45% Chardonnay from Côte des Blancs, Montagne de Reims; 55% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims, Vallée de la Marne, 18-19% as red wine.
Vinification
Hand picked. Fermentation in temperature-regulated stainless steel fermenters. For the red wine, short maceration and light extraction Full malolactic fermentation. Dosage: 9 g/l
Food Match
Celebrate with Ruinart Rosé. From aperitif to dessert, it shines. Pair with Italian prosciutto, mi-cuit salmon, or Japanese “tataki”. Ideal with milk-fed lamb, veal fillet. For finale, savor with berry soup and Modena balsamic.
