The Krug and Ruinart tasting at The Austin Wine Merchant this past Wednesday was indulgent and enlightening. The brand ambassadors were a wealth of knowledge about their respective houses and delightfully entertaining. We tasted so many beautiful wines, but this was perhaps my favorite. The Blanc de Blancs had a toasty nose and warm green apple on the palate with an incredible acidity. We learned that the narrow neck of a Ruinart bottle helps to prevent oxidation and preserve freshness.
