A Triumph of Chardonnay Blending Mastery



The "Champagne & Sparkling Wine World Championships," held for the first time this year, was founded by the globally renowned wine journalist Tom Stevenson. It is the world's only competition where awards are presented only to products that receive unanimous approval from Champagne and wine experts worldwide.

As a result of the competition, Ruinart's delicate and elegant taste was highly praised, earning five brilliant awards. The World Champion in the Non-Vintage category was "Ruinart Blanc de Blancs," an elegant, pale gold sparkling wine crafted solely from Chardonnay.

The World Champion award in the Vintage Champagne category went to "Dom Ruinart 2002." This is a top-tier vintage Blanc de Blancs Champagne, notable for its youthful aromas of white flowers, pear, and citrus.

"Dom Ruinart 2004," which brilliantly secured the Gold Medal in the Vintage Blanc de Blancs category, will be available from mid-November.

"Dom Ruinart 2004," with its exquisite balance of elegance and freshness, first presents sweet aromas of brioche, coconut, and freshly baked bread upon tasting, which then evolve into notes of flowers and citrus. Its flavor profile is characterized by a crisp, velvety texture with a pronounced mineral quality.
