Magnum Ruinart Rosé

The large format that enhances the finest tastings

Thanks to its larger volume, the evolution of the wine is slower and more harmonious. The aromas gradually gain in complexity while retaining the freshness and finesse that characterize the style of the House Ruinart.

The magnum is often considered the ideal format to fully appreciate great champagnes.

The excellence of a historic house

Founded in 1729 in Reims, the House Ruinart is recognized as the oldest Champagne house. For nearly three centuries, it has crafted cuvées renowned for their elegance, precision, and remarkable consistency.

The Ruinart style is largely based on the essential role given to Chardonnay, which brings freshness, tension, and delicacy. The wines then continue their maturation in the famous chalk pits of Reims, where the natural conditions favor optimal aging.

Ruinart Rose: a precise blend in service of elegance

This cuvée combines Chardonnay with a majority of Pinot Noir, part of which is vinified as red to obtain its delicately pink hue and characteristic aromatic palette.

The Chardonnay brings liveliness, finesse, and floral elegance.

The Pinot Noir develops structure, notes of red fruits, and depth on the palate.

The balance between these two grape varieties results in a particularly harmonious rosé champagne, capable of delighting both enthusiasts and connoisseurs.

In this magnum format, this harmony gains even more precision thanks to a more gradual evolution of the wine.

A generous and refined tasting

The color reveals a beautiful salmon pink hue, animated by particularly fine bubbles.

The bouquet opens with aromas of raspberry, pomegranate, fresh strawberry, and cherry. Aeration then reveals nuances of citrus, rose petals, exotic fruits, and light spicy notes.

On the palate, the texture appears ample and silky. The natural freshness perfectly balances the aromatic richness, while the bubbles add a great deal of finesse.

The finish, long and elegant, leaves a pleasant sensation of freshness accompanied by delicate fruity notes.

Perfect pairings with a magnum

The magnum format is particularly suited for meals with several guests. It allows for a more consistent service and better temperature retention.
