    The Ruinart vineyards extend across the prestigious terroirs of the Montagne de Reims and the Côte des Blancs. The predominantly limestone soil fosters the finesse and minerality of the wines. The temperate climate, with oceanic influences, allows for optimal grape ripening. The vines, cultivated with care, benefit from ample sunlight while being protected from harsh weather. This unique terroir reflects the identity of Ruinart, where each plot contributes to the creation of exceptional champagnes.

    Owner and history

    Today, Maison Ruinart belongs to the LVMH group, a symbol of luxury and excellence. Under this leadership, Ruinart continues to thrive while preserving its heritage and time-honored expertise.

    Vinification and aging

    The winemaking process for Ruinart's "R" begins with a rigorous selection of grapes, which are gently pressed to extract the best juice. Fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve the freshness and purity of the aromas. Approximately 20 to 25% reserve wines, from the two previous years, are added to the blend, bringing complexity and depth. Aging on the lees, which lasts several months, enriches the wine with creamy textures and subtle nuances. The disgorging process and final dosage are carried out with care to guarantee the harmony and balance of the product.
