Maison Ruinart is the first of its kind. In 1729 Nicolas Ruinart signed a charter that would create the first ever Champagne producing company. The company continues to prosper almost 300 years later. The Ruinart Rose was the first Rose to be produced in Champagne over 250 years ago and is comprised of 55% Pinot Noir (20% of which is red wine) and 45% Chardonnay.

Tasting Notes from the Producer
Flavour
The nose is a curious mix of tropical fruits and red berries which lead to notes of rose petals. The palate is stunning with consistent flavours from the nose being expressed. Wonderful balance with a long and intense finish.

FAQs
Dark chocolate pairs best with wines that have the structural intensity to match its bitter cocoa and tannin character without being overwhelmed. Fortified wines are the strongest match: aged Tawny Port with its dried fig, rancio, and roasted nut character is the classic pairing. Banyuls from the Roussillon, a naturally sweet Grenache based wine, is the benchmark French equivalent. A full bodied, fruit forward red such as Zinfandel or Amarone can also work, where the ripe dark fruit and spice complement the chocolate.
Many wines use animal derived fining agents during production to clarify and stabilise the liquid before bottling. Common fining agents include isinglass (derived from fish swim bladders), gelatine (bovine or porcine), casein (milk protein), and egg whites (albumin). These are added to bind suspended particles and removed before bottling, but trace quantities may remain. Vegan wines use alternatives including bentonite clay, activated carbon, or pea protein. Checking the Barnivore database or looking for a vegan certification on the label is the most reliable approach.
