Ruinart champagne magnums are a must-have in any cellar in more ways than one. The Ruinart Magnum serves twelve glasses of champagne, and catches the eye in its own right.
You may not be aware, but great champagnes such as those from Ruinart can improve with age, and can be kept for several years or even decades. As with wines, the Magnum champagne format is even better suited to ageing than the classic format. Equivalent to two classic bottles, the Magnum has a 1.5 litre capacity. Thanks to its greater volume, the ageing of champagne in Magnum format differs from that in standard format.
First of all, during the ageing process, a key stage in the development of a champagne's identity, the aromas develop more harmoniously, resulting in exceptional complexity. Secondly, the magnum's large capacity means that it is more resistant to temperature variations. Thermal changes have very little effect on the champagne, which means it can be kept for longer. Similarly, because there is less space between the cork and the wine, Ruinart magnums oxidise much more slowly, making them excellent reserve wines.
Finally, the Magnum is synonymous with conviviality and happy moments. A symbol of exquisite pleasure and unprecedented refinement, the Magnum is the perfect format for gastronomy. In Michelin-starred restaurants, champagne served by the glass always comes from a Magnum. Accompanying an event with a Ruinart magnum is guaranteed to leave a lasting memory of a tasting of rare prestige. With their elegantly shaped bottles, these precious vintages add sparkle to the glasses of your guests.
You can thus diversify and deepen the tasting experience of your favourite Ruinart champagnes by letting them evolve and enjoy new nuances. Ruinart Blanc de Blancs, R de Ruinart Brut, vintage or non-vintage, and Ruinart Brut Rosé are available in Magnum format and can be laid down in your cellar.
Ruinart Blanc de Blancs in a Magnum is an emblematic cuvée of the House, with an aesthetic so recognisable that it offers an even more bewitching golden luminosity. The intoxicating aromas of white-fleshed fruit mingle with a roundness and harmony that reveal the purity of Chardonnay in a clear and precise way. With refined dishes such as scallop carpaccio or sea bream tartar, a magnum of Ruinart Blanc de Blancs is above all a wine of finesse.
The R de Ruinart Brut Magnum is immediately captivating thanks to its inimitable design. The pleasure of this exceptional cuvée can be felt from its fine bubbles to its subtle golden highlights, not forgetting its impressive freshness and sublime aromatic palette. The magnum format subtly reveals all the nuances of the style of the oldest champagne house.
The R de Ruinart Brut vintage Magnum gives full expression to the finest years of Champagne. Like the R de Ruinart 2009 magnum, this cuvée highlights the perfect balance of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in almost equal proportions. The pale gold colour is subtly enhanced by green highlights. The freshness revealed on the nose meets the roundness on the palate to create a unique structure that will appeal to the most discerning connoisseurs.

Ruinart Brut Rosé in Magnum format looks like an exceptional champagne. And with good reason, as this cuvée, created over 250 years ago, has never ceased to explore all the nuances of the Ruinart taste. Exported throughout Europe before the end of the 18th century, Ruinart Rosé won the hearts of the greatest aristocratic families of the last few centuries, as well as the ruling elite. Tasting this fresh, fruity, gourmet champagne in a format of this size is a fine tribute to a savoir-faire born three centuries ago from the visionary spirit of Dom Thierry Ruinart.
