Submitted: 6th April 2025

Fresh and youthful, the oldest Dom Ruinart I've tasted is a 1979, this 2013 vintage offers toasty notes, dried fruits, pastry, ctirus, chalk and smoky notes, you can also get some white peppery and spicy flavours in the length. I would like to re-visit this vintage in a few years to see its improvements.

What Was The 2013 Vintage Year Like? "2013 stands out as a year unlikely to be seen again soon. It was characterised by a winter and especially a spring that was both rainy and cool. Despite no spring frost damage, the temperature in the first six months was the lowest recorded in 20 years." - Ruinart

At least 9 years’ ageing on lees

“Releasing a Dom Ruinart cuvée is a rare opportunity to discover the imprint of a year in a great Blanc de Blancs. 2013 was marked by a very late harvest bringing more freshness and toasty aromas enhanced by ageing under cork.” - Frédéric Panaïotis, Ruinart Cellar Master.
