A blend of 85% Chardonnay and 15% Pinot Noir from Aÿ and a dosage of four grams per liter the 2009 Dom Ruinart Rosé possesses a complex vibrant bouquet with aromas of cherry spring flowers gooseberry tangerine almonds pastry and slightly reductive elegant notes. Full-bodied fleshy and vinous the palate is perfectly balanced dense and concentrated with a delicate mousse and a long saline penetrating finish. There?s plenty of structure and substance here. There is no reason to wait but it will age beautifully for another five to eight years.

The 2009 Dom Ruinart Rosé is a very pretty understated Champagne. Bright red fruit blood orange mint rose petal dried flowers and cinnamon are nicely lifted. This is an especially quiet subtle Rosé especially for the year. The blend is 85% Chardonnay mostly from Grand Crus in the Côte des Blancs (Cramant Avize Chouilly Mesnil-sur-Oger) with a touch of Montagne de Reims (Sillery) plus 15% still Pinot from Aÿ. Disgorged in 2018 dosage is 4 grams per liter. - By Antonio Galloni on March 2023 Frédéric Panaïotis is one of the most articular Chef de Caves in Champagne. Since taking over in 2007 Panaïotis has produced a string of stellar Champagnes including the 2010 Dom Ruinart which I was able to revisit for this report. Readers will also want to check out the new Blanc Singulier 100% Chardonnay bottled with no dosage meant to reflect the nature of Champagne today in the climate change era.
