Tasting Notes

WA93

The 1996 Brut Dom Ruinart Vintage has just begun to develop some of the tertiary notes that are commonly found in this wine. The 1996 is a large-scaled Dom Ruinart that boasts notable intensity and purity in its ripe varietal fruit. With some time in the glass, notes of licorice, mint, spices, minerals and smoke come forward, adding further complexity. The 1996 looks to be a stellar Dom Ruinart: This is Lot: ADKTA3, disgorged March 2006.

WE93

Made entirely from grand cru grapes, this is a beautiful wine, layering toast and ripe fruit with a proper minerality from the year. Flavors of honey, toast and nougat soften the aftertaste. It is ready to drink now, but it has still a ways to go, as the intense concentration of fruit opens out.
