The 2002 Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs, a prestigious cuvée from Champagne Ruinart, is a masterpiece of Chardonnay from 100% Grand Cru vineyards. This vintage - considered one of the best in the last twenty years - showcases a vibrant yellow colour with fresh plum and nashi pear aromas. Its taste evolves from citrus and tropical fruits to a creamy, patisserie-like richness, embodying the elegance and harmony that define Ruinart. Aged six years on the lees, this champagne is now in a prime phase of its life, ready to be enjoyed up through 2030. This bottle is in magnum format. 


97/100 - Still a stunner, the 2002 Dom Ruinart is just as gorgeous as it has always been. Warm, toasty notes meld into apricots, succulent peaches, white flowers and spices in a rich, expansive Champagne that captures the essence of the year. The 2002 is pure, full-throttle opulence, yet all the elements are very much in balance. A creamy, resonant finish rounds things out in style. Multiple tastings have shown that the 2002 is shutting down in bottle, so my suggestion is to be patient. What a gorgeous wine this is. This bottle was disgorged in March 2012. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous 

94/100 - In 2002, it was almost impossible not to make good wine, and Dom Ruinart was a blessed creation, 72% of fruit coming from Avize and Chouilly and 28% from Sillery and Puisieulx in Montagne de Reims. Despite its youth, this is already harmonious. Everything is there in small proportions that will increase over time white flowers, citrus, coconut, butterscotch, almond biscuits and steely mineral. - Richard Juhlin, Decanter
