CRITIC REVIEWS
Antonio Galloni
The 2010 Dom Ruinart is as magnificent as it has always been. Once again, I am mesmerized by the wine s freshness, precision and detail, especially in a vintage that was so challenging in Champagne. The 2010 will be one of the most enduring legacies of Chef de Cave Frederic Panaiotis' life and career.

The first vintage of Dom Ruinart to have been aged under natural cork rather than crown cap. 2010 was a cooler and wetter summer than 2009 - 'almost like a traditional year', according to chef de cave Frederic Panaiotis, adding that this was not a bad thing to have . They started picking on 14 September but then the rains got worse so only 10% Montagne de Reims (Sillery) Chardonnay was included in 2010 so 90% is composed of the top grands crus of the Cote des Blancs. 10.4% potential alcohol (average 9.9%). Hand-disgorged in November 2020 with a dosage of 4 g/l. Really deep flavoured. Very obviously more depth of flavour and tension than the 2009 Dom Ruinart. The cork ageing does seem to enhance the savoury, reduced character reminiscent of white burgundy. Very long with lemon notes. A truly exciting wine that is still extremely youthful. (JR)
