Soil: Cold clay soils that when combined with the summer sun produce a freshness into the wine

Vintage: 2009 was a particularly sunny year and thus a very fresh wine.

Grape: Pinot Noir and Chardonnay are the specialties of the region. Serendipitously, this Rosé is a blend of those two grapes. The Pinot Noir gives a fullness and the red colour, balanced by the freshness of the pure white Chardonnay.

Soil: Cold clay soils that when combined with the summer sun produce a freshness into the wine

Vintage: This is a non-vintage (NV), so this blend is consistent year on year with the features the make Ruinart unique.

In one sentence?

Expect a subtle nose with hints of tropical and berry fruits, a distinct attack on the palette and a voluptuous body, leaving you with a delightful balance of freshness.
