Tasting Notes | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|
Very impressive aromatic depth here, layered and complex with a nicely captured toasty, nutty edge plus lemon citrus, peach and sweet-smelling florals. The palate has restraint and purity; really smartly focused power here with ripe acidity, plenty of attractive middle-palate flesh and a long, sherbet-like finish. Dosage is the lowest ever for Dom Ruinart at just 5.5g per liter. Score: 95 James Suckling, JamesSuckling.com 14 July 2015 |

The 2004 Dom Ruinart Champagne Blanc de Blancs is one of my favorite champagnes at the moment. This wine shows brioche, caramelized grapefruit and apple skin, with a hint of more exotic, tropical fruit. It is dry, intense and beautifully made. Published 2 Oct 15. Score: 96 Robert Parker, Hedonists Gazette, robertparker.com 01 May 2015 |

Showing an impressive backbone of acidity, this is dense and powerful, yet harmonious overall. The fine, creamy mousse swathes the statuesque frame in a silky texture, with honeysuckle, graphite and hazelnut notes lending fragrant accents to the rich palate of baked white peach, toasted brioche, lemon confit and smoke. Drink now through 2030. Score: 95 Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator Maturity: 2015-2030 28 February 2015 |

The 2004 Dom Ruinart is just as brilliant and viscerally thrilling as it has always been. If anything, the 2004 has shut down considerably over the last six months. Tightly coiled and exceptionally beautiful, the 2004 boasts fabulous intensity, class and pedigree. The flavors are vibrant, chiseled and crystalline in their precision. Time in bottle is doing wonders for the 2004. This is a tremendous showing. Disgorged June 2013. Score: 97 Antonio Galloni, Vinous.com Maturity: 2015-2034 01 November 2014 |
