Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre have their roots deep within the bedrock, contributing to the exceptional qualities of this wine. Hand-picked, very low yields, and 18 months of maturation in tuns and barrels create an exceptional result!

Located on the lower and middle terraces of Châteauneuf du Pape. Clay-limestone soil covered with rolled pebbles.
The climate is Mediterranean, subject to two dry seasons (one in winter and a longer summer) and two rainy seasons (brutal in autumn depending on the vintage and more clement in spring). Finally, the presence of the Mistral wind throughout the year constitutes a powerful ally for the cultivation of the vines.

VINIFICATION

Partially destemmed grapes are fermented by plot (10 to 15% whole bunches in some vats) and fermented at controlled temperature in concrete tulip vats. Gentle extraction with light pumping over and punching down. Hot post-fermentation maceration lasting up to two weeks. Blended after malolactic fermentation, aged in barrels (20%) and foudres (30%) for 12 months, then 6 months in concrete vats

THE FIRST CHAMPAGNE HOUSE

On September 1st 1729, in Reims, at the heart of the Champagne region, Nicolas Ruinart drafted the founding charter of Maison Ruinart, creating the world’s first ever champagne-producing company.

This gave rise to an enterprise that continues to flourish and to prosper nearly three hundred years later.

The intuition of his uncle, the monk who had first shown him the way, had thus inspired an initiative that was to make history.

The vintage

A cold and wet winter gave way to a gloomy spring with cool and rainy conditions that delayed the vegetative cycle by about fifteen days. The summer was hot and dry, with the most sunshine in the Champagne region, giving the best conditions for even and gradual grape maturation. The rainy spells recorded at the beginning of September as well as the east wind helped to preserve the health of the vineyard. Harvested from 28 September to 15 October, the grapes from this late vintage revealed a perfect balance between acidity and roundness as well as a beautiful aromatic richness.

Wonderfully youthful on the nose, the wine seems innocent, but attractive and compelling. Aromas of bright fruit leap from the glass, red berries in abundance. There is a lovely richness here, great structure and depth. Acidity is incredibly well interwoven with tannins to create a concentrated mouth-feel. It’s a really generous, yet fresh and juicy wine. It’s actually rather delicious, even at this young age and a wine which really ought to be considered strongly this year.

The 2021 La Louvière is quite intense on the precise nose of blackberry, wild strawberry, cedar and tobacco scents. The palate is medium-bodied with fine-grained tannins, fresh and vibrant, leading to an elegant finish. A success in a difficult vintage. 91-93 Neal Martin.

Lovely perfumed berry nose. Juicy and bright on the palate, this has a sense of joy to it and although the tannins come in and dominate the palate in terms of chewy texture the fruit has persistence and determination giving slightly sour cherry, strawberry and tangy raspberry the whole way through. I love the upfront nature here, the terroir on show in the glass, and the chalky tannins provide the support which will soften over time. Skilled winemaking on show. 92 Geogina Hindle, Decanter.

The epitome of cool blue friuit, on the border of full ripeness, where there is elegance and balance, expertly handled extraction, grilled almond and gunsmoke coming in under the fruit. This is a success, a lean, carefully constructed wine. 91 Jane Anson.
