A skilful blend of wines made from the Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes, "R" de Ruinart is a golden, lively, fruity champagne with the subtle aroma of white fruits which make it an excellent aperitif or the ideal accompaniment for a "champagne only" meal. The full extent of its aromas will be brought out by a subtle, sophisticated dish such as lightly sautéed scallops.
Composition
A blend of 40% Chardonnay, 60% Pinot Noir, including 26% reserve wines.
