Founded in Reims in 1729, Maison Ruinart has always stood out as a company strongly focused on innovation and respect for tradition. Currently, attention to environmental problems is one of the pillars of the company philosophy, which devotes great effort to reducing the carbon footprint of packaging. The new Ruinart Second Skin recyclable case is made from 100% paper and is nine times lighter than the previous pack. Made according to rigorous environmental standards and modeled on the iconic profile of the Ruinart bottle, its chalky texture recalls the walls of the ancient Champagne cellars.
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is a top-of-the-range Champagne, produced from a 100% Chardonnay blend from different vintages. The grapes mostly come from Premiers Crus vineyards of the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, famous for their aromatic finesse, with small additions of Sézannais wines which are renowned for their roundness.
The color is golden and extremely bright. The nose reveals ripe and lively citrus notes, followed by aromas of white flowers and stone fruit. On the palate, it is soft and harmonious, round and superbly fresh. The finish is mineral, long and refreshing. It is a perfect Champagne for an aperitif, but it goes very well with all seafood, shellfish, and fish tartare.

overall i had a positive experience, they have a wide range of wines, some which are hard to find anywhere else - the main reason i still buy from them, plus the discounts are fair and often, but... their codes for the first offer only works at the first offer, which if fine, but then why would you send me the voucher in each package i order, why spam me on the email and every time i log in on the website? this is really bothering me... then their rewards points system is useless, first of all because you only get peanuts even after spending €250 on an order, but even those peanuts will expire if you won't order again soon, which is unfair, to say the least... and lastly, if you get a corked wine, a wine with any deffect or a wine that leaked (my last order contained a bottle of $100 Caymus Cabernet with a leaking cork, which made the wine tasted cooked and flat), they have no procedure put in place for you to replace or return the wine or to get a refund or replacement - none, which is a big no no no for any wine collector... so all in all i give it 3 stars for now
