R de Ruinart Magnum second skin case

The R de Ruinart is the house's flagship, here in magnum. The cuvée is made up of 40% Chardonnay, 40 to 45% Pinot Noir and 10 to 15% Pinot Meunier, complemented by 25 to 30% reserve wine from the two previous vintages. It shows a golden colour and lively bubbles. The nose offers pear, apple and apricot, with floral notes. On the palate it is round and fleshy, with ripe fruit and a long, fresh finish.

The magnum suits larger gatherings around the table. It comes in the “second skin” packaging, which is 100% recyclable and made from wood fibres from sustainably managed European forests. It fits snugly around the bottle and is designed to reduce the environmental footprint compared with conventional boxes. Serve at 8 to 10 °C in a white wine glass, as an aperitif or with oysters, scallops and Chaource.
