Why Gifted Pour recommends it
For the person who marks milestones with a proper cork pop, this 2010 vintage Blanc de Blancs is a thoughtful choice. It is Ruinart's prestige cuvée, made entirely from Grand Cru Chardonnay sourced predominantly from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, and its Extra Brut style keeps the focus on precision rather than sweetness. In the glass, expect a pale gold color and fine, persistent bubbles, then glazed apple, apricot, roasted hazelnut and ginger-laced pastry cream over a chalky, saline backbone, finishing long with citrus and toasted hazelnut. It suits a promotion, a significant anniversary, a wedding toast or a host who appreciates seafood and good cheese. The eco-friendly Second Skin gift box makes it presentation-ready and reflects the house's focus on sustainability. Because its firm structure suggests it will keep developing for another decade, the recipient can open it tonight with oysters or lay it down for a future celebration, which makes the gift feel considered either way.
Pairs well with
- Fresh oysters or sashimi — The chalky, saline backbone and notes of oyster shell and lemon zest echo the brininess of raw seafood.
- Truffle risotto or triple-cream Brie — Its creamy texture and toasted hazelnut notes complement rich, buttery dishes while the chiseled acidity keeps them fresh.
- Milestone anniversary or promotion toast — A vintage prestige cuvée in a Second Skin gift box brings a sense of occasion, and its long, elegant citrus finish suits a celebratory moment.
Questions about this bottle
What does Blanc de Blancs mean for this Champagne?
Blanc de Blancs means the Champagne is made only from white grapes. This bottling is 100% Grand Cru Chardonnay, sourced predominantly from the Côte des Blancs and Montagne de Reims, and released as a 2010 vintage Extra Brut.
What does Dom Ruinart Blanc de Blancs 2010 taste like?
It opens with mineral intensity, glazed apple, apricot, roasted hazelnut, ginger-infused pastry cream and hints of white blossom and Meyer lemon.

How should I serve it?
Serve it chilled at around 45-50°F (7-10°C) to highlight its vibrant acidity. A white wine glass or a Champagne flute works well, letting the aromas open up while preserving the fine bubbles.
Should the recipient drink it now or cellar it?
Both work. The 2010 vintage is already showing beautifully, but its firm structure and complexity suggest it will continue to develop gracefully for another decade, becoming even more nuanced with additional bottle aging.
