TASTING NOTES

Production

For the production of this Amarone della Valpolicella Classico, the finest bunches are selected by hand and laid out on trays, then left to rest in the drying room for four months, during which the natural drying process takes place. Between January and February, the dried grapes are pressed; their thick juice is left to ferment and macerate for 30–40 days in stainless steel. After racking, the wine undergoes a long ageing process in large oak barrels of 30 and 50 hl, followed by further ageing in the bottle. 100 ml: 344 kJ / 82 kcal

Organoleptic Characteristics

It is a purplish-red colour with intense, brilliant ruby highlights. It immediately captivates the nose with an explosion of aromas of cherry, black cherry, ripe red fruits, undergrowth, flowers and orange peel, which blend with elegant spicy notes, aromatic herbs, tobacco, dark chocolate, coffee, liquorice and pepper. On the palate, it is perfectly balanced, offering an immediate warm and velvety sensation. It is full-bodied, with a solid mouthfeel, supported by a fresh vein and soft tannins. The whole fruit and spice notes return continuously, in a polyphonic harmony.

Occasion and Pairing

Best enjoyed with red meats and roasts.

Serving Temperature

To fully appreciate its style, this wine should be served at a temperature of 16–18°C.

THE WINERY

Rubinelli Vajol

One family, one spirit. Maison Ruinart was founded in 1729, when Nicolas Ruinart, exploiting the intuition of his uncle, a Benedictine monk in Reims, founded the Maison which still bears his name today. Today Ruinart is part of the LVMH group and is one of the most renowned Champagne producers in the world. There are specific techniques that characterize the history of the Maison Ruinart and reveal the essential character of an exceptional experience. In the Maison Ruinart, Champagne is a product of the earth, which respects the harmony of nature and treats the fruits it offers delicately. The aromatic Chardonnay grape variety is the basis of all cuvées and its grapes derive mainly from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims. Blanc de Blancs is the most representative wine for the Maison, which first appeared in 1959. All Ruinart Champagnes ripen in crayères, i.e. chalk quarries located 38 meters deep at constant temperature and humidity, today considered a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Dom Ruinart represents the oldest Champagne produced in history, aimed at acting as the progenitor of a legendary tradition.

Name and address manufacturer/distributor: Ruinart, 4, rue des Crayères, 51100 Reims - France. The products from this cellar should be stored in a cool, dry place away from heat sources.
