Founded in 1729, Maison Ruinart is the very first established champagne house. Since then, it has never stopped developing and promoting its own art de vivre. Ruinart expresses its commitment to art by commissioning artists, starting in 1896 when Alphonse Mucha created the Maison’s first artwork.

Each year, the Maison has gone on to commission some of the world’s finest contemporary artists and designers, giving them carte blanche during their residencies to pay tribute to its cuvées, its history, its heritage and its crayères: the impressive chalk cellars that are listed as an Unesco World Heritage Site.
