Dom Ruinart 1998 from Berry Bros
30 July 2008 by Angela Frewin
Dom Ruinart 1998 is a new vintage Champagne from the world's first Champagne house, which was founded in 1729.
The light-gold liquid is a blend of Chardonnay grands crus from the Côte des Blancs (66%) and from the northern Montagne de Reims area (34%).
Its white floral aromas contain hints of Reine Claude plums, peaches and pears, pastries and fresh chestnut, while the fruity taste suggests citrus fruits, kumquat, bergamot and mango.
