Beautiful pale golden yellow colour with gentle green reflections a vibrant luminous colour. Active effervescence with a persistent release of bubbles. At first very intense on the nose with fresh fruit notes particularly ripe citrus fruits. A second refined floral nose with notes of white flowers and fruits (white peaches pineapple). A supple harmonious attack on the palate very rounded. Vinosity that is not excessive supported by excellent freshness. Notes of nectarines citrus fruits with a pleasant mineral quality in the finish. Long very refreshing finish."

Vinous: 92 Points
"Light yellow-gold. Smoky citrus and orchard fruits on the deeply perfumed mineral-tinged nose. Offers broad toasty orange and pear skin flavors with an undercurrent of dusty minerals. Picks up floral and ginger nuances with air along with hints of iodine and tarragon. Rich yet lively blanc de blancs with powerful back-end lift and finishing grip."
vWine Advocate: 90 Points
This is a fabulous version of Ruinart?s NV Brut Blanc de Blancs. The wine seems fresher, more vibrant and less obviously sweet than in the past, all of which makes this a far more interesting wine. The trademark profile of lemon, jasmine and green apples is very much in the forefront while the wine?s textural finesse and length are both first-class. This release of the NV Brut makes a great introduction to the wines of Ruinart, Champagne?s oldest house. This is Lot LAGJSAF. Anticipated maturity: 2011-2014.
Wine Enthusiast: 89 Points
Ruinart is a Chardonnay house, so this wine can be considered one of its signature cuvées. With some bottle age, it is crisp while also toasty with secondary flavors that are balancing the apple and citrus fruits. The wine is well balanced, the soft aftertaste still in keeping with its crisper, textured flavors.
