Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs

An iconic cuvée in an exceptional format

The Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs combines the emblematic elegance of the Ruinart House with the advantages of a large format. A true reference among prestigious champagnes, this cuvée enchants with its finesse, freshness, and ability to enhance great moments of sharing.

Presented in magnum, this champagne reveals a slower and often more harmonious evolution than a standard bottle. This 1.5-liter format favors better preservation of aromas and adds additional complexity over time.

Made primarily from Chardonnay sourced from renowned terroirs, this champagne expresses a bright and refined style, true to the historical identity of Ruinart.

Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs: why choose the magnum format?

The Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs stands out not only for its generous volume. In Champagne, the magnum is often considered the ideal format for aging and tasting.

With a more favorable air/wine ratio, the effervescence retains more finesse, and the wine evolves more slowly. This gradual maturation allows the champagne to develop a fuller texture and more complex aromas.

This format is particularly suitable for:

• large gatherings;
• important celebrations;
• gastronomic meals;
• enthusiasts wishing to age their champagne for several years.

With its remarkable aesthetics, the magnum also adds a spectacular dimension during service.

An ideal format for exceptional moments

Wedding, anniversary, private reception, or prestigious gift: a large format immediately captures attention and enhances every tasting experience.

The magnum allows for serving more guests while maintaining optimal quality in every glass.

The style of Ruinart: purity and elegance of Chardonnay

Founded in 1729, Maison Ruinart remains the oldest champagne house. Its identity largely relies on Chardonnay, the signature grape of its great cuvées.

The Blanc de Blancs perfectly reflects this philosophy. The grapes come from several carefully selected Champagne terroirs, notably the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims.

On tasting, this cuvée reveals a luminous aromatic palette:

• fresh citrus fruits;
• candied lemon;
• white flowers;
• white peach;
• delicate exotic fruits;
• light brioche notes.

On the palate, freshness initially dominates before giving way to a delicately creamy texture. The finish remains long, elegant, and mineral.

Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs and food pairings

The Magnum Ruinart Blanc de Blancs pairs precisely with many refined dishes. Its balance between tension and roundness allows for varied pairings.

This cuvée particularly enhances:

• fine oysters;
• seared scallops;
• sashimi and raw fish;
• a citrus sea bream tartare;
• farm-raised poultry with light cream;
• certain fresh or lightly aged cheeses.

Its natural freshness also works very well with contemporary cuisine influenced by Asian or briny flavors.

Serving tips to fully enjoy the magnum

The service plays an essential role in tasting a great champagne.

A temperature between 8 and 10°C is ideal for preserving the aromatic balance of the Chardonnay. However, avoid excessive chilling that could mask some nuances.

Using slightly open glasses allows for better expression of the aromas.
