Produced by the historic \u003cstrong\u003eMaison Ruinart\u003c\/strong\u003e — founded in 1729 and considered the oldest Champagne house — it is made exclusively from \u003cem\u003eChardonnay\u003c\/em\u003e grapes sourced from the Grand Crus of the Côte des Blancs and the Montagne de Reims.\nThe term \"Blanc de Blancs\" indeed indicates a Champagne made only from white grapes, in this case 100% Chardonnay, synonymous with elegance, finesse, and linearity.\nThe production process follows the \u003cstrong\u003eChampenoise method\u003c\/strong\u003e, also called the “traditional method,” which involves a second fermentation in the bottle to obtain fine and persistent bubbles, the unmistakable hallmark of Ruinart quality.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVintage Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\nThe 2010 vintage was characterized by complex and selective weather conditions. After a mild spring, the summer alternated warm days with intense rainfall, requiring great care in the vineyard.\nFrom the harvest, which began in September, only the best grapes were selected, concentrated and with a perfect balance between acidity and ripeness. The result is a Champagne of extraordinary freshness and depth, capable of expressing itself at its best over time.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eVinification and aging\u003c\/h3\u003e\nChampagne Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs 'Dom Ruinart' 2010 is the result of careful vinification: fermentation in steel tanks, followed by a very long maturation on the lees — over 9 years — which gives it complexity and aromatic richness.\nThe final dosage is minimal, hence the definition \u003cstrong\u003eExtra Brut\u003c\/strong\u003e, to preserve the purity of the fruit and the typical minerality of Chardonnay. The result is a perfect balance between freshness, tension, and roundness.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eColor\u003c\/h3\u003e\nIn the glass, it presents a \u003cstrong\u003ebright golden yellow\u003c\/strong\u003e, with very fine and regular bubbles that attest to its long aging on the lees.\n\n\u003ch3\u003eNose\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the nose, it opens with elegant aromas of ripe citrus, white flowers, and dried fruit, accompanied by subtle toasted and mineral notes. Over time, hints of bread crust and almond emerge, typical of prolonged aging.\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePalate\u003c\/h3\u003e\nOn the palate, it is broad and vibrant. The attack is fresh, the structure creamy, supported by a fine acidity that prolongs the persistence. The extremely delicate bubbles lead to a long, saline finish, with great cleanliness and harmony.\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat dishes to pair with Champagne Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs 'Dom Ruinart' 2010 - Ruinart\u003c\/h2\u003e\nThis Champagne is a refined companion for seafood cuisine and dishes where elegance and delicacy are protagonists.
