The House of Ruinart is unlike any other. It was the first established House of Champagne in 1729 and inspired by the intuition of a monk well ahead of his time
THE FIRST CHAMPAGNE HOUSE
On September 1st 1729, in Reims, at the heart of the Champagne region, Nicolas Ruinart drafted the founding charter of Maison Ruinart, creating the world’s first ever champagne-producing company.
This gave rise to an enterprise that continues to flourish and to prosper nearly three hundred years later.
The intuition of his uncle, the monk who had first shown him the way, had thus inspired an initiative that was to make history.
