Ruinart — The World's Oldest Champagne House
Champagne Ruinart was founded in 1729 in Reims and is considered the oldest champagne house. The Maison specializes in Chardonnay, particularly in Blanc de Blancs. The headquarters is located at 4 Rue des Crayères in Reims, Montagne de Reims.
History
1729 marks the beginning of an almost three-hundred-year champagne history: Ruinart is the first officially founded champagne house. The Maison evolved over the centuries into a Grande Marque and significantly shaped the Blanc de Blancs category.
