Resource Overview
It is a pleasure to welcome Frédéric this Friday to guide members through the iconic Ruinart Champagne. Ruinart was founded in 1729 by Nicolas Ruinart in the city of Reims, the year after a Royal Decree in 1728 whereby Louis XV gave his consent for sparkling wines to be shipped in baskets containing 50 to 100 bottles. This opened the gates of Europe to champagne and thus makes Ruinart the oldest Champagne House.
