Millésime 2015 | Bottle 75cl - Box

Description

Maison Ruinart's 2015 vintage is a structured wine with sappy, dynamic balance. Notes of fresh, saline white fruit.

The 2015 vintage fits in perfectly with the continental trend of the decade, with a mild, wet winter and a hot, dry summer. Ripening, thanks to a cool late summer, produced juicy, ripe and concentrated grapes - a spectacular vintage.

The 2015 Ruinart Vintage blends 44% Chardonnay, 44% Pinot Noir and 12% Meunier from the Grands Crus and Premiers Crus of the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. Vinified and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve all the wine's tension and finesse, this cuvée is then blended into Extra Brut.

This cuvée has a pale golden hue, with green and silver highlights.

The first nose evokes the world of the orchard, with notes of crunchy pears and fig leaves. The nose is then dominated by spicy notes of fennel, cardamom and licorice stick. Hints of dried lime blossom and green tea tie it all together.

On the palate, the attack is fresh, followed by full-bodied, unctuous accents of fresh white fruit. The finish is lively and elegant, sustained by a slight bitterness and saline notes.

Ruinart's Millésime 2015 is a gastronomic champagne that is both firm and fresh, bringing an original touch to pairings such as crispy soft-boiled eggs with watercress butter and parsnips in different textures.
